“Doing the daf” is not necessarily an admirable goal. If you take an hour or two each day to learn with Rashi, at the minimum, than you are having quality learning. Davening a daf in 45 minutes is not a valuable religious activity.
I do say the full Krias Shema al ha Mita, vidui, a final cheshbon hanefesh of the day, prepare negel vasser to keep bedside, keep tzitzis and kippah next to the bed, etc.
