I've *never* been able to degas, really degas, a wine in less time by stirring vigorously. Using a vacuum pump isn't as consistent as I'd like, but is more consistent than stirring.
Sometimes degassing is done very quickly. Sometimes it takes forever.
I've done 30-40 batches using vacuum for racking and degassing and have yet to detect even a tinge of oxidation.
YMMV
