That will heavily depends on the hardware used, cpu arch, i/o for disk.
An "old" hardware can get a few hundred entries per sec.
You should be able to get several thousand entries per second with 
"recent" hw, should reasonably be under 15 minutes.
A small virtual machine can get 500 entries per seconds, a VM running on 
a "good" host will get more.
