Assembling ConRods on Crank

Quick question. How 'freely' should I expect the conrods to rotate under their own weight once torqued down onto the crank? I completed the assembly over the weekend and as I rotate the crank each rod falls in a very smooth motion under its own weight, without any one moving more quickly or slower than another. The motion though is a reasonably slow one. Wasn't sure if I should have expected these things to spin around the crank fast or slow.

I know its a tough question to answer without seeing the real deal but am curious to see what you all may have to offer.

Thanks,
