Everything is done by volunteers, so the answer is, "it depends".

As I check there is a backlog of 980 port PRs.  You can get an idea of the
distribution via http://portsmon.freebsd.org/chartsandgraphs/prsexplanations.html.

I'll note that we have several committers who like adding new ports, so they
tend to get added within a few weeks.
