I can cut a jelly roll in under an hour including the initial pressing of the fabric.

CG Stripology also is slotted every 1/2in and has instructions and a handy chart for 1/4in cuts so you don't have to math for common sizes. I reach for this ruler as often as I can because not only is it accurate and fast, it's fun to use!

Honestly, looking at the QuiltCut that Platyhiker suggested, I may have gone with that if I had known when I first purchased this one. CG is just slightly too short to make it foolproof but I have found if I fold accurately so the fold lines up with the selvage, then line up the bottom fold of my fabric with the top of the #2 line, I don't have a problem with not being able to cut completely through the strips.
