I read the backlog is 2.4 million for all applications (not just sponsorship), and sponsorship takes 2 years, can anyone confirm? (for outland)

Most of the cases are still done within 7-10 months. Can't say anything...all depends on complexity of a case, visa office, etc. Some have waited for even 18 months.

The figure is 80% done in less than 24 months - many much less than that.

And this is a backward-looking figure to height of pandemic, hopefully that number will decrease (i.e. we do not know how long files submitted now will take, presumably less if they are catching up).
