What does early voting look like?

So, I'm pondering the early voting this weekend, but I'm wondering what the setup looks like. How many booths are there? Are they organized? Are there lines? Is it going to be insane this weekend and I'm better off waiting for my local polling place on 11/8?

It was pretty efficient when I went yesterday, mid-afternoon, with short lines. You first go to sign in, which is split in thirds alphabetically. They give you a manila envelope with a sticker with your name/address/ward. You then go to a second station where you're given the actual ballot. There were probably 25-30 booths to fill out your ballot in.

The parking area around City Hall has quite a few parking spaces reserved for voters, with 15-minute limits, but it was a bit messy getting in and out -- you're better parking nearby, walking, or taking a bus.
