The transcode will be handled as fast as it can be by the hardware.
You can see the actual speed in the playback info tool from the video player.
It will tell you how much fps your transcode is running at and the actual speed ratio.
So if your video runs at 24fps and the transcode is happening at 48fps, Jellyfin will show this: "48fps (2.0X)"
In this example, "2.0X" means that the transcode is happening twice as fast which you can extrapolate to mean the transcode will finish in half the time it takes to watch the video.
Videos are transcoded into small chunks and are stored on the transcode folder.
These chunks get sent to the client that started the transcode.
