Around 30-40 secs. It depends on your HD and start up items though.

Thats a bit like saying how fast should a normal car get to 60mph...

Need a bit more detail on your macbook pro, what ghz mainly? core 2, i5 or i7?

Presume no SSD.

But generally what the others have said.

I also feel that after using ONYX maintenance tool start up times can be slower, could just be me though.
