It currently takes 40 minutes from net startup to get to a normal epoch (3rd one). This makes using the localnet quite slow for troubleshooting issues that only occur in normal epochs (such as rewards). Ideally, the layer duration and epoch duration can be made smaller to reduce the time until 3rd epoch in a localnet.
