I think we spent most of our time as professional software developers analyzing existing code. In medium and large projects we spent 80%+ of time reading and trying to understand existing code. We spent less than 20% typing and testing the our latest changes to the code. The key to speed up software development is to write clean code so we can understand it faster and to have a good suit of good unit tests that protect the existing functionality so we don't need to study the existing code so hard because we trust unit tests to prevent us from breaking something.
