but the testing is time-consuming (it takes almost 54 hours to reach live sync, which performance-wise is pretty good for processing of 6 years of blockchain history,
Hmm, how long will it take 10-20 years from now to replay the blockchain history?

Very hard to predict such things because it depends on growth rate of the blockchain, software improvements, and hardware advancements.
not that long as the speed of processors and capacities of computers are doubling faster than the db is doubling
Yeah, that's a good point. Software improvements, as blocktrades pointed out in his answer can make a difference as well.
