Juk I totally agree..7 days would be enough to get bacteria going. If they left the bacteria underfed for long enough to lose heat, might take longer till they build up the bacteria by feeding with sulfides to temperature again (40 degrees)so they can put full throughput through.
My reference of 2-3 weeks was for the overall process- you have to add 7 days of start up then 5 days through the BIOX then 5-7 days through CIL..that is where I got 2-3 weeks from. Plus if you're not putting it through now, you get cash flow problems, dropping tanks to make payroll, etc.
