Sorry you hit Schiphol cold: it's one of the largest airports in Europe (it's so big that the working population is somewhere in the range 130-140,000 employees).
When flying through it and switching between Schengen (EU border-free) and external zones I try to allow 3 hours for connections: better safe than sorry, and if you hit border control at the wrong time of day the queue can be an hour deep.
