IFR lost comms and currently on a vector

Instrument flight plan and IFR and lost comms while on a 'vector for traffic' or 'vector for spacing'....how long do you fly on this heading until resuming on course? Applying the AVE-F rules and lost comms and lets say was given a vector that wasnt a helpful vector getting me on a route, but lets say a vector for traffic.... If lost comms, I am assuming "fly the vectored heading until reasonable clear of their traffic concern and resume on course"? How long do we sit on that vector that is taking us off course until doing something different (lost comms).
