so how long does it take the trub to settle but the yeast is still in suspension? I'm not sure if I don't get a lot of trub when I make starters or what but I sometimes can see no distinct layering going on.

It only takes a few hours, tops, for the gunk to settle. I think Palmer said he only waits 15 minutes, then collects the top liquid. The hop pieces are pretty big compared to the yeast, they settle fast.
