I just say a Julia Child thing on TV where she demonstrated omellete making. She made, like 15 omelletes, one after another (which I thought was kinda weird). They took like 20 seconds to make on high heat.

I don't recommend that way! The biggest obstacle to pan eggs is overcooking.

As far as hard/soft boiled eggs go--the cooking time is variable. It depends on the size of the egg, how cold it is, and maybe some other factors. So you have to experiment a bit with your stove, and your eggs. I usually like 9 minute medium boiled eggs and make my hard boiled eggs about 15 minutes with eggs out of the frig.
