Default Radiator - flow and return on same side?

It would be advantageous if I could connect up a rad with the flow and

I get that best case scenario it will take longer to heat up, will it
take a lot longer? Will it fully heat up all?


Flow/return on the same side means derate by about 5%, i.e. hardly at all.

(unless it's a very long radiator, or you put the flow at the bottom and return
at the top...)
