In the last two years since I was hired there have been nearly 1400 people hired there. If you want my guess, the upgrade will probably be 4-5 years for someone starting at OO now.
Things are moving so fast I doubt it would ever go that high. You say 4-5 years for someone hired today - but there are more mandatory retirements at the majors in the next 4-5 years than there are regional pilots.
