I'd say 8.5 hours seems like the sweet spot for having just enough sleep to not accumulate any sleep debt. About 7 hours is fine for some time, although I don't exactly like it, and for really short periods, even 6 hours goes. Anything below that, and sure, I can function, but it sure doesn't feel like that.
