its sent instantly. if the receiving party is online, they will be interrupted on their browser with the new private message box. if they are offline, the next time they sign in the box will appear immediately to notify them about new pm's. i was pming a few people back and forth last night and had two new ones when i signed in today thats how i know

It cetainly is no 8.9 in the quarter. It's just ow fast the recipient responds. Internet connection may play a small factor.

some people have the PM notification turned off. if they do, it may take them a while to notice they have a new one. other than that PMs are sent instantly.

It's as fast as the database can execute a SQL query, so probably a few milliseconds? The notification depends on internet connection, and like Melissa said- if notification is off somebody might not notice.
