I havn't had any real delays in SYD airport this year when returning from any of my trips overseas.
I'm off the plane early and straight to duty free (sometimes) or straight to the SmartGate gate. I'm a fast walker and normally have good exit seats so can be off fairly early.
That only takes a couple of minutes, then I'm out waiting for the bags to start rolling. Bags start rolling while only a few people are out waiting for them most of the time (gotta love Smartgate!)
My bag normally comes out relatively early, so I grab it and go straight to the queue.
Havn't had more than a few mins wait in Syd for an x-ray this year. (Oh and most of the times I've been just waived through without any search at all!).
This is with flights arriving at between 6 and 9 and various times during the afternoon etc.
I must have just been lucky!
