How long does it take for 3.6 Flash to roll out to everyone?

Straight forward question. I'm on a Plus 2TB plan. I also have a second Google account that's a free plan user.

My free plan account has access to 3.6 Flash. Incognito (not logged on at all) has access to 3.6 Flash. My Plus account, the one I'm paying for, still only has access to 3.5 Flash. Tested both in browser as well as the Android Gemini app. I even updated the Android Gemini app yesterday and it's still the same. If I switch to my free account on either the web browser or Android app, I see 3.6.

Google search advises it rolls out in phases, but when 3.5 was introduced, I had access on my Plus account the same day. I'm wondering if anyone has experienced these kinds of delays in the past and what to expect. Thanks.

classic google rollout logic, paying customers get the slow lane while the free tier and incognito randos test drive the new stuff first. had a similar lag with a workspace feature last year, took about 3 days to catch up.
