Saab 340 manual recommends 2 minutes at idle power before engine shut down so this could be your primary reason (if the taxi in is short). Otherwise delays occur due to the need to shut down certain systems (packs, electrics, etc) and more importantly the props have to be taken out of Beta mode and into feather before selecting fuel off.
