If it’s VPLS, the customer wouldn’t be using BGP though.  That’s why I 
mentioned STP.

Another to way to check would be to figure out when you start seeing 
mac-addresses from the customer in the vpls tables.  That will mean the network 
has failed over properly.  Do you know what the customer topology looks like?  
They could be waiting for BGP to fail over or something else that inherently 
slow.  I doubt this is a problem with your mpls config, especially if you see 
your lsp switch.  It's hard to guess without knowing your's or the customer's 
topology though.

No, they are not using rapid ping, i can confirm it.

I do not agree with Spanning tree issue.
Just for note, i am just de-activating one circuit via CLI to trigger 
transition from primary to secondary.

I'm sure they were using a rapid ping, so it didn't take anywhere near 45 
seconds.  If they were using a regular ping, however, it maybe a STP issue.

Also are you using pre-signaled LSPs?

Node protection and link-protection is the same thing as fast re-route.

Is it configured correctly though?  You have to configure a secondary path
under protocols mpls and then enable it for FRR/node protection.  You can't
just enable it and have it work.
Also, what does the topology look like?  Could you just be waiting for
customer routing/spanning tree?  Even without FRR your lsp's failover at the
speed of your IGP when a link is shut down.  None of them take 41 seconds.
