    Hi..  The first question is hard to answer as it depends what you are synchronizing and then how much is changing inbetween syncs.    The more data the longer the sync time.  

    the Second question is that you need to look into your D365 mailbox configuration and see what "Appointments, contacts and Tasks" is set to sync".

    Hi partner,

    If a system administrator has implemented security for particular fields or records, it can affect the data that’s synchronized.

    You could refer to these articles:

    https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dynamics365/customer-engagement/admin/what-fields-synchronized-outlook

    https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dynamics365/customer-engagement/admin/view-fields-synchronized-dynamics-365-outlook

    https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dynamics365/customer-engagement/admin/how-field-security-affects-synchronization-between-outlook

    Dynamics 365 administrators can set whether a sync occurs and the sync direction for Dynamics 365 and Microsoft Dynamics 365 for Outlook fields.

    Check if the required fields are set to be "Are synced one way from Dynamics 365 to Outlook" or "Aren’t synced".

    Hope this helps.
