This depends on
a) whether you have bags checked in
b) travel on one ticket
c) have a boarding card for the domestic flight
d) if the domestic flight is with a LCC

I'm guessing you are flying in with a legacy carrier, which uses KLIA1. If the connecting flight is on Air Asia the connection is to KLIA2, the low cost terminal on the other side of the airport: so something of a time sink.
If you are connecting to an MH domestic service life is simpler as these are handled in the domestic section of KLIA1, the terminal.you arrived at.

Immigration queues are unpredictable - and sod's law is that when the queues are short, baggage delivery takes its time.
