my ads are approved pretty much instantly - I think it depends on the account. I'm working exclusively on an account older than 2 years, that has a large budget.

Google has been cracking down LOADS on affiliates of late so I wouldn't be surprised if they're manually reviewing a lot more ads at the moment - leading to a delay in a lot of other cases... (It'll probably get better when this big push to net affiliates winds down)
