I always try to go to Spellhold as soon as possible. I just want to get Imoen back as quickly as I can since she's one of the most useful NPC's (and she is your sister after all). with Imoen and Nalia (or Edwin) I've got enough magical firepower and don't have to have another thief in the party.
this of course means I do the majority of side-quests in ch.6.
if I do all the quests (except for some NPC specific ones) and with a full party I finish the game in about 50-60 days.
