On the other hand, I find it too hard to reveal it at all. I'm guessing that this issue is just one of subjectivity, and that there isn't a large happy medium to find. I'd be skeptical about changing the delay, but you can set the delay manually in CCSM.
That said, I have noticed that the launcher won't reveal unless the cursor is stopped on the edge of the screen (Or traveling below a certain velocity).
