The progress bar tells you what % is finished and how long the process will take. These are always notoriously inaccurate. They will say 10 mins left to finish but it's not unusual for it to be twice as long. But in this case it said 16 mins and it took about an hour.

Btw lol @ the pic. That cat looks Hugh as fuck, like it had a bit too much cat nip. "Oh shit the walls are melting again, what did I get myself into?"
