I went through most of the books listed and did the exercises. This happened over the span of 6ish years but I was not always consistent. Timing is really hard to nail down because your strength as a programmer and engineer really come into play. SICP, for example, took me about a month of putting in a few hours a day. As it turned out my professional experience had given me significant experience with many of the concepts involved. Conversely, for Computer Networking: A Top-Down Approach it took me 6+ months because I'd never had meaningful experience with networks outside of browser dev tools and was not very good at systems level stuff.
