Ive equally had experiences where it’s taken over 2 hrs.
Yes, it is still very unpredictable despite some overall improvement. Over 2 hours still happens if you are unlucky enough to arrive on the wrong day at the wrong time, 15 minutes happens more often than before. On the whole, I recommend using the kiosk first though there may still be a long line for your passport and receipt to be controlled before exiting.
