15 minutes if things are going smoothly. 45 minutes or an hour if there are delays. Longer if an actual problem is found. The fact that "sorry; we discovered we need to re-adjust the wheel bearings" should mean "go ahead and read your Kindle for a while" is irrelevant; they *don't* allow electronic devices between seating & takeoff, no matter how much time they wind up sitting on the runway.

I'm not weighing in on any particular side of this, just saying that it's fairly often not just 10-15 minutes at stake.
