I would tend to agree with Jon. For most of the books I edit, I use a collection of saved search/replaces that do most of the work that Sigil's plugins don't handle. Most of the books I read have pretty decent styles but the majority of my wife's indie published books need cleanup. My estimate for most of those is around 5 minutes to 10 minutes. Keeps her happy which keeps me happy.
