If your caliper is properly aligned and pads converge on the rotor symmetrically, then bedding-in happens very quickly - a couple of hard stops and you are done. But if there are alignment issues, then it might take much longer. You are basically filing down your pads to conform to the demands of improper alignment. They will file down and conform eventually... but it is not the right way to do it.
