I've found it pretty instantaneous except for once when I created a brand new domain name. I discovered that the registrars in my country had set times during the day when they applied updates, so I simply waited for the next time slot.

How long before locking a domain?

Just changed the DNS Nameservers for a domain and info was that it takes 24hrs to flush through. Do I have to wait 24hrs before relocking the domain or can I just do it now?
