OK, the Linux Mint test, initial install, and upgrade to 22.1 took < 30 minutes (I was using a 22.0 USB boot key).
It SCREAMS. Boot-to-login takes 17 seconds from a fully powered-off state. Login-to-home-screen is <5 seconds.
This old mid-2012 MBP has a 1TB SSD, an old 2.9 GHz Core i7, and 16 Gig of RAM, and it runs like it's late for a date or something.
