Estimating how much time I'd take in a clocked match

I haven't ever played backgammon with a clock. I'm trying to get a sense of what 2/12 feels like. When I play a seven-point match against XG 3-ply, it takes me on average half an hour. Although a direct comparison may not be possible, does that seem to be in the same ballpark as 2/12?
