I usually run 8-12 hours after startup, the soot is mostly accumulated on startup. So the more running you do at temperature and the less short hours you run, the cleaner your oil looks. Also agree looking at your dipstick isn't a gauge of oil quality, since it's a very thin sample of your oil.

Good comments in this thread!
