Answer

volume rehost takes only a few seconds regardless of the usage of the target volume.
 
Example:

aff200-2n-dal-1::*> vol show
Vserver   Volume       Aggregate    State      Type       Size  Available Used%
--------- ------------ ------------ ---------- ---- ---------- ---------- -----
aff200-dal-1a
          vol0         aggr0_aff200_dal_1a
                                    online     RW      348.6GB    316.0GB    4%
aff200-dal-1b
          vol0         aggr0_aff200_dal_1b
                                    online     RW      348.6GB    316.0GB    4%
svm1      svm1_root    aggr1        online     RW          1GB    972.4MB    0%
svm1      vol1         aggr1        online     RW        900GB    540.7GB   36%
svm2      svm2_root    aggr1        online     RW          1GB    972.4MB    0%

aff200-2n-dal-1::*> vol rehost -vserver svm1 -volume vol1 -destination-vserver svm2

Warning: Rehosting a volume from one Vserver to another Vserver does not change the security information about that volume.
         If the security domains of the Vservers are not identical, unwanted access might be permitted, and desired access might be denied. An attempt to rehost a volume will
         disassociate the volume from all volume policies and policy rules. The volume must be reconfigured after a successful or unsuccessful rehost operation.

Info: volume is rehosted on the target Vserver.
Set the desired volume configuration - such as the export policy and QoS policy - on the target Vserver.
