If you have the right equipment, dosing lime is hardly any work. You need a vessel to keep freshwater in, and a dosing pump of some sort to slowly get the water into your aquarium. You can do the same with a KW reactor, also very little work once it's set up.

On the other end of spectrum, you could stand by your tank all day and drip limewater in with an eydropper. That's alot of work!

There are other methods somewhere in the middle, like mixing up a few days' worth and using a gravity dripper to dose.
