Good idea about calculating based on time.
For out and back climbs, I carry enough water to drink on the way up and to have a good long drink at the top. Never need any on the way back down. I also usually drink a full liter or more right before starting, to supplement what I carry. That way, I don't need to start hitting my water bottles until about 10k into the climb.
