What is the average length of the Divine Liturgy of St. Basil in the Greek Orthodox Tradition?

I would have to say anywhere from one to two hours depending on the choir and choice of music for the set pieces. The priest's prayers are much longer, but they are usually said quietly by the priest in the altar while the choir is singing something different. The length of the homily will also affect the overall length of the liturgy.
