Yep - kernel metadata 'per thin LV' are reasonably small - so even for big thin devices it still should fit within your time boundaries. (effectively thin snapshot just increases 'mapping' sharing between origin and its snapshot - so the time needed depends on how many bTree nodes needs to be updated - so if you would manage to create heavily fragmented multi TiB thinLV, the time depends on speed of you metadata device - as long as device is fast (i.e. >= SSD) - operation should be quick. But ATM there is no scientific proof for the worst case scenario.
Well, I'll do some tests and update here if finding anything interesting.
