How long should it take to write to flash?

I am just wondering how long it should take to write to flash, the following line of code takes about 8 seconds to update a 128k block of CFI flash memory. Is this normal? alt_write_flash ...

Seems somewhat slow.

I'd expect a moderate fraction of a second - something like 100ms but it is a long time since I've written/used flash writing code.
