My dwarves seem to spend LOTS of time praying at the temple.  The wiki doesn't mention anything other than having a coffer with music instruments, plenty of space and maybe adding some performers. I have those already. My carpenter spent 7days praying and with different types of praying (such as meditation) before finally stopping.  Besides building custom temples for each deity is there any way to speed the process of praying?

Custom temples don't necessarily raise speed of praying.

Though I've read some claim that it makes them more likely to enter temple, the only time I've had problems with people entering one has been when they were in or directed into another location.

However, once they're in a location, other locations, even ones in same tile but placed later, won't be used even if the need to pray is in red. As you can only pray to 1 god in specific temple, I'd at most lay them over a general temple zone (if drawing them in claim proves true). Only activity that can forcibly override this even while placed later in my experience has been active military training.

Since being focused raises the speed of jobs, it might be possible that it raises the speed of praying as well; but I'd guess not (not only is it an activity rather than a job, it makes little sense to play music faster because you're more relaxed).
