Way, way too fast. I as on the same track as the other poster thinking that given bones taking about 12 weeks to heal, you could break a few significant bones every week, maligning the hell out of the area, disfiguring the regrowth, and also cause pain to the previous few weeks breaks as well. That's without any real soft tissue damage too. Of course before the bones were healed you'd make them crawl/hobble to their food. I think you could keep it up for many months. That said, and though I'm not a torturer, let alone an expert, I think the challenge would be managing the psychological state. On the one hand, they can't become completely overwhelmed or they might develop psychological coping mechanisms like branched personalities, complete dissociation, etc. You also don't want them thinking you might be a benevolent captor and that everything will be OK, but you can't let them give up. You have to keep the fire of fight stoked despite experience, and then put it out with a firehouse every single day.
