Other than that: it depends
Somone that is totally into sport climbing and obsessed with penis lengths grades might spend dozends of trys or months on a route, whereas others only do stuff that they can onsight.
My way (and i think its the best way) is somewhat in the middle.
If i try a route and cant onsight it i try to judge how far it is over my level. If the route is nice, and i see a chance to do it within a reasonable amount of tries i come back to it.
If i realize that it is way over the top for me, i go for something easier. Shure, i could project action directe, but what good would it be to always fall from the start holds from now to eternity, just greasing them up?
But the same applies to trad (or some kind of trad/ sport mix that some routes here have) where you not only have to get the moves, but also the pro.
