I file this in to every new image to get more accurate project loading progress bars, and it still works for me. So I thought I'd repost.
from preamble:
"Change Set: SlightProgress-sm Date: 3 Nov 2001 Author: Simon Michael
Make project loading progress indicators slightly more accurate by storing timing data separately for local & remote downloads. After loading a few projects you should notice less flickering, especially when downloading large projects over a slow link. Also fixes the spelling of the TranslucentProgressMorph class."!
