He was always a fast (and efficient nurser). Generally about 10-15 minutes and usually just one side. (He only really used 1 per feeding when he was young.)
Every baby is different. As long as your getting enough wet diapers and your baby is happy & thriving, gaining weight, you should be OK.

My 3 month old bottle feeds 4-5 times a day, 5 ounces each time.

7-8 times - usually about 3-4 pumped bottles (5-6oz) when I'm at work and I nurse him the other times

DS is EBF and eats 8-10 times a day.
He cluster feeds (every 45 minutes from 6-9 at night usually, so that adds an extra 1-2 times a day
