To share comments I've gathered so far.Up to 150 hours of back/forth changes, at times better, at times not until the V-Caps stabilize and are all better. 50-60% success at this point. Then solid one-directional progress up to 400 hours for 90-95% of glory. Up to 1200 hours for the final subtle improvements. This from people who have used these caps professionally in modifications and end users who've done the cap comparison dance and were meticulous in taking notes.
The latter also have itemized differences in break-in speed based on circuit juncture, i.e. higher current flow accelerated things in higher-level circuits and slowed it down in low-level junctures.
Nearly everyone agrees that in the first 50 hours, things can be mediocre to absolutely unlistenable.
The Teflon/tin-foils are said to take longer than the oil-filled V-Caps which sound better sooner.
What did the elephant say to the naked man? Not too bad - but can you really breathe thru that thing?
