Flying economy. One World Ruby status only.

As I'm trying to maximize my time in London, what time shall I arrive at the airport in good time to clear security? Typically how long is the queue through security on a Sunday late afternoon?

Thanks in advance.
If find at this time in the evening on a Sunday there is a small peak (nothing like the mess that is a weekday between 17:00-19:00). So, I would plan to arrive no later than 17.35/17.40, and probably plan for about 17:25 just in case there is a small delay on DLR for whatever reason.
