If the oil coat is thin enough, that is the volume to surface rtio is right, it will dry fast. Linseed oil of all types is a drying oil, it oxidizes and dries when in contact with air.

If the oil pools, ie the volume to surface ratio is volume biased, it will stay wet for a looong time.

There is a book about it, but I do not know the policy re posting sources so I will not say anything.
