This one's actually pretty easy, we've done this with as little as 8 people I believe (rotating BRD). Everything can be meleeburned down pretty quickly, you just proceed along the outer edge and then double back to the center room, hitting SE room first, then crossing over to the SW room.

Good setup would be something like BRD RDM WHM NIN BLM, and a few blinked melees. /NIN is required for melees because the yagudo boss's sweep hits very very hard, not to mention the blinked random hits save a lot of MP. BLM is needed to ES sleepga2 the bosses.

Order of boss kill is PLD > WHM > SMN (Orc > Quadav > Yagudo). PLD is actually sleepable, but his resist sleep proc rate is incredibly high. When fighting the WHM, be sure to pull it away from the sleeping SMN so it doesn't wake it. SMN does Kirin-style Astral Flow, as do all SMNs in Limbus, and it's usually Carby. Soul Voice Light Carol is nice for this.

Pretty quick, simple run, just keep moving and save damaging 2 hours for the bosses.
