I need to put up some picture rails quickly and I intend to glue them up.

Looking in Screwfix they have Gripfill Max and Gripfill 'Normal' which is
half the price of the Max version.

I have used a few of these different products Pink Grip, Grabs Like Nails
come to mind, but the only one I will use in future is "No More Nails".
Grabs well but not instant so you can move the item a bit to fine tune
position.
In coolish conditions, gives you just the right amount of time to apply the
stuff, fit the rail and locate accurately. Don't dither about though to be
safe.
As others have said it will not hold well enough if either the rail or wall
are well off straight.
Have found N_M_N on offer in local Boyes shop, otherwise it is one of the
dearer ones.

Would be inclined to put two smaller beads of adhesive on rather than one
big one.
Check the tube for the coverage claimed.

IME none of this stuff works well without enough thickness of bead to
get a bit of suction going. I'd squirt 5mm min down the centre of the rail
