The immense and typically immeasurable time frame needed for the typical tweaker to complete ANY (yes, ANY!) task that they've set about to complete. Recipiants (sometimes referred to as 'victims') of said 'tweaker time' may be routinely subjected to exceptionally difficult positions placed upon them by the 'tweaker'. It is usually wise to push scheduling of important tasks to next week, or the week after, if in the presence of anyone under the influence of 'tweaker time'.

When some functions on tweaker time they lack concern for other people's time and mislead them on the amount of time it takes to meet or do something.
