 The latest test took about 90 minutes with a good internet connection for a Raspberry Pi 3 B+ (18 minutes on a Pi 4B). We gave it a lot of things to do so you won't need to do them.
 While you are waiting, you could create a splash screen for your event: a 1000x1000 portable network graphics (.png) image in RGB format works great.
