After trying the timed run for several weeks with a 2 healer + shadowpriest group, we always came a minute or two short. Granted, this was not a fully consumabled raid. Last night we went in with the following group:
Prot Pali
Prot Warrior
Enh Sham
Rogue
Resto Druid
Ele sham
Holy CoH Priest
Holy Priest
Fire Mage
Destro Lock
Completed with 4 minutes to spare. Our pulls were chained with one healer occasionally on rotation for drinks. Our two melee DPS locked down a flame caster while one priest MC'd. This setup would have been MUCH more ideal with a resto shaman in lieu of one of the priests, for the added lusts on bosses and greater ease of raid healing. I would estimate this would easily put us under the 40 minute mark.
Given these results, I strongly favor the flexibility that a 3 healer setup has to offer, especially when those healers know when to DPS appropriately. Magma totems, SW:P for example.
