How long does it take your oil light to go out?

When you start your Mini for the first time of the day, how long does it take for the oil pressure light to extinguish?

a) It goes out even before the engine starts (while I'm cranking)

b) It goes out by the time I release the key (as the engine starts)

c) It goes out after the engine's been running for a second or two (when the other lights go out, except for EML/SES which take a few seconds)

Just curious. My answer is "c", which is good if it means that the oil pressure sensor is nice and sensitive or bad if the engine is not making much oil pressure.
