According to the Armory I'm on 10 kills (plus one on my druid), really should do more but I ran out of steam after finlly getting the last pet from that place. I'll go back sometime though, it's a beautiful mount. You've got it down way faster than me, although I still use the tactic of dragging the mobs all around the place instead of fighting them all in one room (my dps isn't really high enough for that; it is not fun having more than 2 of them CC'ing me at the same time....), so my record for the Kael fight itself is about 13 and a half minutes, and that's after clearing the entire raid out first (ok, I only need to clear half of it but hey, more chance at pets!). Void Reaver sucks if you're a caster lacking many instant spells btw, that one's 3.5 minutes on a good day.... did him in under 1 minute when I took my druid there, sheesh!
