Take-home assignments: how much time is “too much” to spend?

Had one that said “2-3 hours” and I know I put closer to 6 into it. Not sure if that’s dedication or a bad sign about my time management. Curious how much time others actually spend versus what’s asked for.

I cap myself at the stated time now, on purpose, even if it means submitting something less polished. Figured if they penalize me for following the instructions they gave me, that tells me something too.
