Time lag in response to load changes

I would very much appreciate any responses to the following question. In a firetube boiler, how long does it take for the response to a change in load to evidence itself.

In some more detail, increasing steam demand would cause an initial lowering of drum pressure resulting in larger steam bubbles and consequent rise in level. How long would it take after a valve is opened somewhere to increase this steam demand for the results to be felt.

Thanks in advance,
Sanat
