Desalinated for about 14 hours IIRC.  I did a few water changes along the way. 
 
Ran about 7-8 hours SV. 
 
The bagged half came out with the right flavor and was not exactly the texture I was looking for, but once it chilled overnight the texture improved to close enough.  I think I'll lengthen the cook time when I do this again.  A larger cut would need more desalination time - this one just barely makes the cut for salt levels in my tastes. 
 
The unbagged half came out super tender, and the texture I was pretty much looking for, but super bland.  It basically just tastes like a mild roast.  Probably would not do it this way again.  Or, if I did, I'd skip the desalination. 
 
And, with about a pound left to eat, I am officially sick of corned beef now for the next few months.  ugh..
