Investor residency has 3 periods of validity. The initial visa, if applied through the Consulate, is valid for 2 years, followed by a 5-year residency permit and then with Residency Permits with periods of 5-years validity. If the application is made from Spain whilst on a visit, the authorities will grant the 2-year residency permit directly, followed by a permit in 5-year residency periods.
It is also possible to become a permanent resident and then apply for Spanish Citizenship (10 years of residency).

According to the law, the Consulate has 10 days to approve the permit from application (provided the right documents have been submitted for a Spanish Residency).

This is not required. The only permanency criteria for renewal of the visa permit to residency permit, is to have travelled to Spain at least once (during the initial visa permit).
