How long does it take to make an actual fingerprint match on AFIS? How about DNA through CODIS?

I'm not a terrorist or anything. Just curious as to how in shows like CSI, things happen so fast. I know in real life, they're bound to take MUCH longer.

I have had some fingerprints come back within a half an hour, and others have taken longer (2-3 hours). For fingerprints coming back from Interpol, they can take up to a day or two.
