During your startup lifestyle, how many hours of productive work do you get accomplished per day?

I'd guess around 12-14 hours of actual thinking and working time. At a normal startup as an employee, I'm guessing you'd average around 10 hours, but more around crunch time

And then I assume another 2-3 hours of "dicking around" with RSS or other non-valuable computer activities?
