The biggest difference between my voting yesterday and today is that there are more votes in each category. Putting the knowledge I gained yesterday into action, I decided that in order to take the weekend off without losing any opportunity to influence with my upvote I would need to get those 80 additional votes in over the course of the work week. 80 votes divided over five days comes out to 16 additional votes. I then allocated them proportionally to each category, the numbers in the corners indicating what the new daily total should be in each category. Since I didn't start this yesterday I will still lose 16 votes by Sunday night but I'm not going to worry about it. I want to give the new totals a try this week to see if I can even manage it.
The self upvote on this post is not included in the "for wiser" column, but will be added by tomorrow.
I had to hunt down a lot more small minnows to upvote, but it was well worth it.
I learned some interesting things from my feed, including the creation of a brand new @steemshop account to support a marketplace, the existence of a Steem faucet which I can't wait to try out, and how @anwenbaumeister used her Steemit earnings to build a really cool permaculture farm.
My current SteemWhale rank is 3267. My voting strength is at 82.67%. I expect it to deplete further until I am done voting on Friday, and it can recover while I am not voting on Saturday and Sunday. My reputation score is at 55.3.
And I composed this entire post, including taking and uploading the photo, on an iPad with a one year old baby on my lap.
I admire your organization and very methodical approach to using Steemit... seems like it is working out pretty well for you, too!

How much increase in time did the extra votes take?

It definitely took longer, but it's not like I've timed myself before and after. I don't get to do all my curating at once, so it's hard to even estimate how long it really takes. I think once I get used to the new level it will be doable. I feel like I can be more thorough with 56 votes, but I doubt I could handle any more.
