How long do you guys spend training legs???

On a heavy leg day how long does it take you? Maybe I'm just a perfectionist and I don't feel like I'm doing enough, so I keep doing more and more. I always try to get 5 sets in on each exercise, 6-8 reps as heavy as I can go. I always warm up first and stretch, then:

Squats or hack squats: 4 or 5 sets 6-8 reps
Leg Press: 4 or 5 sets 6-8 reps
leg curls: 5 sets 6-8 reps
standing calf raises: 5 sets 10 reps
seated calf raises: 5 sets 10 reps

it always takes me about 90 minutes to complete my workout. I've tried taking less time inbetween sets, but I'm not recovered from the previous set. Any suggestions?

I don't feel like I've had a good enough workout if my legs aren't weak and I'm not limping out of the gym.
 
I just do squats, leg press and calf work, takes about 45-60 minutes, once a week.
 
OK, I TRAIN LEGS ONCE A WEEK.
START W/HAMS 6 SETS
SQUATS 3-4 WARM UPS 3 SETS
LEG EXT. 3-4 SETS
USUALLY ABOUT 1 HOUR, IF WE ARE LAZY A LITTLE LONGER.

I VARY IN REPS, BUT READ THAT HIGHER REPS WILL CAUSE YOU TO GET BIGGER. 12-15 REPS WITH AS HEAVY AS YOU CAN.
JUST MY OPINION.
 
4 sets hack squats 8 reps
3 sets leg presses 8 reps
3 sets leg extensions 8 reps
3 sets leg curls 8 reps
calf work

I might throw in some abductor and adductor work cuz i want more width in the legs.
 
Here's my leg workout:

Quads: Squats, Leg press, Leg Extentions
Hamstrings: Stiff-Leg deadlift, Leg Curls, Hammer Strength Leg Curls
Calves: Standing raises, Seated Raises, Raises on the Leg press Machine

I do quads on a day by themselves and I do Hamstrings with Chest. Calves I do every third day.

Quad workout usually takes 45 minutes
 
I do squats, leg presses, calf lifts thats it. I still feel it 3 days after leg day so I think I am doing some good work (legs are one of my better parts) I do 3 sets of each and 6-8 reps per sets as heavy as possable while keeping good form
