I borrow one of those 18v Makita HD battery grinders from time to time and with the right cutting disc, they go through hardened steel like butter. Seriously, I was shocked - I reckon you'd go through an Almax in 2-3 minutes tops, both links. You'd maybe need two batteries as they run down quick. As you mention, that's nothing in a busy London street.
I know but 2 discs locks and a feck off big chain will take longer and hopefully are a slightly less attractive prospect than the posh expensive bikes I try to park next to with just one form of security.
(i ride a '98 BMW r1100rt so its hardly an attractive bike for thieves in the first place)
