Like the other guy said 4-5 years. And that I would say I'm above
intermediate level but not an advanced level. I don't look at it
so much as how long to master OpenBSD but how long to master Unix!
I read somewhere when I first started learning Unix, that no knows

Not to be an expert, or even a competent sysadmin, in my case. It was

30 seconds. What's taking you so long? :)
- Seriously, this is an unanswerable question, since the definition
of master is
4-5 years, but I'm still learning lots and lots every day.
It really depends a lot on the definition of mastering, since using an
OS also requires understanding the real world situation where you use
the OS in. I felt at home on *nix after 2-3 years, which I think is
something easier to define.

Back when I started out with Unix, in the early 1990s, people told
me it would take ten years to master sysadmin skills. You can
quibble about that figure, but
