As far as I understand, we have to wait 10 minutes. In other words, a minimum of 10 minutes is required to confirm the operation.
Even if we enter the transaction fee too high, it will be confirmed at the earliest 10 minutes.
Then it makes more sense to enter the average values for the fee value.
I know that everyone is complaining about the high fees and the long transaction time, but keep in mind that paying extra fee is optional it wont make the transaction be instant it will make it a bit quicker but not worth paying for it.
You are better off leaving the fee to default, that is what the miners want us to do, they want us to pay more and more fees so they can make profit, I understand that there are more transaction than what it used to be but this has gone way to far.
