That's a real guess, but it could take anywhere from 1/2 a second to several seconds depending on what you have to do to fill each field. (and if they are lookups is the data indexed for the lookup)
Also are you going to fill them by client side Active Links or serve side Get Filters?

Dear List, We are considering an operation that will mean adding 50 display-only fields to a form. This means that the system will need to gather info on each field before it can display a record. About how long would that take, and would there be any benefit to making the fields hidden? Obviously it depends on the speed of the PC and whether or not we are using the User tool or Mid-Tier, but can anyone give us a ruff ball-park guess?
