From my experience the process for getting a normal work visa can take 60 days or even longer as all applications now go through the Department of Labour as well.
Critical skills may be faster but it really does depend on your situation. I've heard of applications being turned around in a couple of months and then other people waiting over a year. It is really hard to give accurate processing time when it comes to the Department of Home Affairs in South Africa.
I assume you'll be applying from overseas which should speed up the process.
For some good background information I suggest you take a look at the Visas for South Africa page.
Have you already secured a job offer? Will you be working with a immigration consultant to process your visa?
Good luck

I don't think it would effect you negativley if you asked a legitimate question on twitter.
Also remember that VFS do not determine the outcome of your visa - that is decided by the Dept of Home Affairs.
