[jbosstools-issues] [JBoss JIRA] (JBDS-3618) Progress does not reflect actual amount of work done

[Jan Richter (JIRA)]

    [ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBDS-3618?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13174661#comment-13174661 ] 

Jan Richter commented on JBDS-3618:
-----------------------------------

The point here is the way it is implemented now is counting on a time estimate for the download. That's a static number and it looks fairly overshot. The downloads usually end in the first 20% of the progress, because the initial estimate just sets the maximum to some (high) value. So then the progress bars just keep moving slowly towards 99% no matter their state until they are set to complete.

> It seems the current way the progress tracking is implemented is simply by giving an initial time estimate for each component. The progress bars then just count down the supplied time with no relation to the actual progress achieved.
