That is still a lot faster than it used to be.
I think you also get a general xp increase as well until 85.

I don't do instances much but just questing at 80+ I could get a level 
in 2-3 hours played time, tending towards 2 hours more than 3.
   Thats a guestimate but fairly close I think,I was levelling profs and 
a lot of other ingame stuff.
  *BUT* that is levelling 4 at a time so all had a good quantity of 
rested and I rotated to make sure they were using rested as much as 
possible. I didn't mind spending a lot of time on pokemon and tourism 
and exploring the lore on one char knowing the others were accumulating 
virtual xp :-).

  The main drag is doing quests that are more rep and lore and back and 
forth rather than actual reward. The first char spends time 
finding/remembering them the rest just take the highway. That would be 
much slower overall for a single char.
  I am not saying quests are better, do whatever you enjoy, it is all 
heavily accelerated. With dungeons you will hit 90 ready geared for 
endgame, for me endgame is really end-of-game, a broken bridge, a 
highway that ends in a thousand goat tracks up a tall mountain :-).
