One of my constant curiosities in cataloging is the question of how long it took a scribe to copy a manuscript. Thankfully, they occasionally answer this question. In the of APSTCH PIRA 00026 (pictured below), the scribe ܐܒܪܗܡ ܟܗܢܐ says that he began copying it on 21 Tammúz (July) 1861 CE and it was finished on 23 ʾElúl (September). So, it took about 2 months to copy this particular manuscript (of around 200 folios).
