Default how free should the front wheels spin (LS460 RWD)

when jacking up the front end of LS460 RWD, engine off, with no braking, I gave a good push on the front wheel, it spun only 1/2 or so revolution. is this normal or is there too much brake pad friction. This is rear wheel drive so the front wheels are expected to spin relatively free. other posts reported 1 to 2 free revolutions. thanks..

thanks for the info.. guess this is normal then?
just ordered disc brake hardware kits, planning to replace all the pins and springs of the front disc brakes, and see if this makes any difference.
