They've obviously implemented some sort of buffer.
It's annoying to have a 30m transfer and log in time. That's just ridiculous.
Think of it as a deterrent to random data center jumping. The primary purpose is for friends to be able to play with friends on other data centers, not to go to Balmung to see if it's anything like the rumors.

It's also unlikely for transfer times to exceed a couple of minutes. The only time it should would be if large numbers of players are trying to get to the same data center for a community organized and promoted event. SE has already said they'll disable transfers to individual worlds if needed.
