It all depends on how you play the percentages.

If one knows the amount of work upfront, one might step through a loop with some sort of $index variable, calculate the percentages against a $total variable, and the bar will behave correctly and be quite smooth !

If the amount of work is unknown. one can benchmark a script by section, calculate the percentages ( section one takes 10% of total time, section two takes 30%, etc) and the bar will still behave correctly, but might seem a bit "chunky" !

I hear what your saying though !
