HOW TO WRITE THIS TASK IN A RESUME

Okay so I wrote two VBA programs that cut the process time from about 10 minutes to less than 2 minutes (well more like less than 1 minute)...

But how do I write this (quantitatively) on my resume and not risk sounding douchey- I mean you wouldn't say I cut down the original process time by 500% would you? Or cut down the original process by 5 times (that just sounds weird)?

Right now I have-

Led efforts in writing 2 VBA programs to automate data collecting processes ... (this is the part I need help on) and cut down original process time by 5 times?

Thanks for all the input
