It takes me 1 minute because I have little lag (nice machine and internet connection), but that's not really the point. It's a time-consuming boring process that could be avoided with a bit of UI improvement, and it's worse for those playing over slow connections (I have a few guild mates playing over dial-up). When you're playing over a connection that was fast back in 1994, it makes a big difference if you can have the game UI take care of complex things for you.
