Answer depends on your cross border traveling habits.

How many, how often, what are the chances that you missed something, and CBSA didn’t, and so on.

You should give us more information.

Hey Sistemc, I have travelled twice back home for vacation from around a month and month and half, do not travel often and not planning to travel till I get my citizenship.

With just two entries in the physical presence calculator, and possibly one additional for the PR landing, I think around 5 days of overhead should be OK.
