That's a fairly ambiguous question we all work at different paces.
If it's compsci then I'd also say 3-5 hours to grasp the majority of the idea
If it's Math then 2 - 3 hours and I'll understand most of it
If it's Physics 3-5 hours and I'll still have questions.

@114Bytes They posted in the MIT 6.00 area, so I am betting they mean the video lectures for that course.

I find that I have to watch things multiple times, take thorough notes, and experiment with the concepts before I really start to understand it and remember it well. I probably spend about 8 hours per lecture/recitation plus time spent on the problem sets.

To be honest, if you look at the time needed to go over things for a college class it can be a lot per week.
