A long time. You should be able to feel a marked improvement in as little as 3-5 weeks, but it's not unheard of for severely cracked ribs to still be painful as much as 6 months down the line or more. However... After the incident, you should see a significant pain reduction in at most 5 weeks, and hopefully in as little as 1 or 2 weeks. If this doesn't happen, if pain gets worse, if breathing becomes difficult, or you develop a cough (especially a productive cough), or expectorate blood, you need to see your doc right away.
