How fast is suspiciously fast when it comes to the restaurant sending out your order?

Some locations start making the pizza before they get the order for it. I worked at a local pizza place for a while growing up and we would always make a few of our most popular pizzas whenever we had room for an extra one in the ovens, because we knew it would be sold during rush sometime before it was to old to be sent out or picked up. If we had extra by the end of the cycle, our managers let us eat it or take it home.
