No, I really meant "to finish". As Sawada-san said upthread, we
should really use text that describes the activity that usually takes
long. While it takes takes only a moment to actually start the
checkpoint, it might take long for it to finish. As Fujii-san says
though we don't need the noise words "to finish".
