It’s great to have the percent completion bar for each section of processing but if there is a way of providing a rough estimate for integration and/or total completion time?

In my case I’m a Stellina user so I’ll always have hundreds of files to process or even more. Having an idea of how long it’ll take to completion would be a great help.

Interesting suggestion yes, but I think very hard to make anything useful out of. I can ask Mabula if that would make sense, but my guess is that it wouldn't give very useful information due to the nature of processing the data.

My thinking is that there is a certain constant time factor involved at certain steps. For example, if a particular file takes, say, 1 second to analyze stars and you have 800 files (very easy as a Stellina user) you can make a reasonable estimate of 799 seconds remaining. Probably similarly in normalization after a sufficient percentage, maybe 5%, have been processed. Etc. It may not be entirely accurate but a ballpark idea would still be helpful.

I talked with Mabula and he does actually have something like this on his list. So very accurate it can't be, but like you said, a ballpark could be possible. I'm not sure when it'll be in there though.

Sounds good to me. I’m sure it won’t be in the finished version being worked on but I recall reading elsewhere he has some UI work he wishes to complete later so maybe it will get put in there.
