What is the normal time?
I'm not too certain there is a normal time, not in the general sense anyway. There are many factors that will determine this with crawl frequency being one of them.
If the site is established, has a good history and PR, expect new pages to be indexed and ranking within 1-2 weeks. The page may not rank immediately for highly competitive phrases, but that will come with a little bit of time. And, that also depends on all of the above. ;)
