There were about five trays selected for secondary.
This was my first time going through the new style scanner and it was slightly better than usual.
It took maybe eight minutes.
I was there a bit earlier than that, - 7.30 and it took 5 minutes to get through the arch. Where our experience differ is that there were so many bags heading for secondary in my lane, that the trays were not moving forward. My bag was 6th or 7th in the queue for secondary and I finally left the security area at 8am
