I'm from Finland. I've never had to wait more than a couple of minutes to vote within the country. Once I had to wait for maybe 5 minutes in an embassy, but the other times I went to an embassy there was nobody except me.
There are also a few early voting days to give people more chances to vote if the actual voting day is too inconvenient.
