That depends on platform and your willingness to try things.
On Mac OSX 10.5 and 10.6, for Kindle for Mac books all you need is to unzip DeDRM_1.2.zip and drag and drop the book you want on top of it and you are good to go (time maybe 20 to 30 seconds depending mainly how long the book is).
If you are on Windows or Mac OS X and want to use the Calibre plugins, then all you have to do is follow the README.txt files that go along with each Calibre plugin in tools and fill in any extra info if needed. Time to do this might be two to five minutes the first time and then it is simply like importing any book to Calibre. Being familiar with Calibre and Calibre plugins makes this even shorter / easier.
If you are on Windows and want to use the gui script tools, then you must find and install Python first (please choose ActiveState's Active Python 2.6 or 2.7 for 32 bits) and then OpenSSL or PyCrypto. On Mac OS X and Linux, python and OpenSSL are already normally installed so it is a cakewalk. This might take about anywhere from 5 minutes to a half hour to track down and install these things depending on how good you are at running installers. Then all you need do is open the right folder and double-click to launch the right program.
So time really isn't the issue, nor is needing to understand terminals, or run command lines, anymore. You should be good to go is you can read a README.txt file and know how to double-click, run installers, etc.
And if you do run into trouble, simply posting on Alf's site in the right forum will get you all kinds of help in short order (including people who will walk you through debugging an issue if one happens to bite).
So this question is no longer about "ease of use" or even finding all of the tools (Alf's "tools" archive makes this very very painless) and more about someone's willingness to just try, and ask for help if they get in trouble.
My 2 cents,
