Depends on where and how fast your machine/VM is, where and how fast the 
nearest mirror is, and how fast the network is between those two points.  It 
might take just a few seconds, or it might take minutes, or it might take 
longer.

Any way to do what?  You could always set up a local mirror for CentOS and 
then you'd be guaranteed that everything would be as fast as it could 
possibly be, but it would take much longer to do that than to just install 
apache/httpd -- you might end up needing to mirror over a terabyte of 
storage, depending on what all you try to include.
