Hi all, I did a test to delete an empty folder from a bucket which is the only object.
The folder has been deleted after one hour …. The consistency level is the default setting. There is no other activity on the grid because this is a test platform.

What would be the right duration to do this ?

I think you are referring to the new feature in 11.7 that allows you to delete a bucket that contain objects. The deletion is performed by ILM and may take as long as you ILM scan duration, even if just one object is in your bucket. In other words it can take allot of time.
If you want to get rid of a bucket containing objects quickly, hook up an external server and delete the bucket with “rclone purge” or any S3 client or self written script.
