it depends on the speed of the wind, what type of windmill, situation and what it's used for... most windmills don't move extremely fast and they are prevented moving in very strong wind because they can't deal with the speed and can break internally.

The blades of a windmill typically rotate at speeds ranging from 5 to 20 revolutions per minute (RPM), which translates to a tip speed of around 30 to 80 miles per hour (48 to 128 kilometers per hour). The rotational speed can vary based on the wind speed and the design of the windmill.
