I don't recall, I think it's been covered in the tivo news letter, and probably on the tivo web site on features. Tivo might even tell you when you set up the option. I'd guess about 5 minutes max.
One thing I found helps is to put any program that is repeated regularly after it's primary showing (channels like SciFi, Comedy Central, and such tend to replay programs more than once), put those shows lower on the priority list, and TiVo will select a showing that doesn't conflict with higher stuff. Put those shows first, and it records the first available showing, even if it conflicts with lower priority shows. Unfortunate that TiVo can't see the conflict, and arrange to pick up both shows, but it doesn't (or at least didn't last I knew). I used to get irate that ER would not get recorded because it overlapped with a show by 1 minute, I'm glad they made that little upgrade.
