I feel the Bootcamp labs are fairly generous on the times they provide. I
have spoken with another lab candidate about this and he agreed.
I seem to remember - depending on the exact section - that I could do the
Bootcamp labs in about 1/2 to 2/3 of the time they allocate. Then when I
took the real exam I finished day 1 around 2:30-3:00 if I remember correctly
(before checking my work, which was another 1-2 hours).

You say the CCBootcamp Labs are close to the lab itself. How about the time
guidelines? I often find myself completing the CCBootcamp labs with plenty
of time to spare, but then I wonder if the time guidelines are generous?
