Revolution is very slow to refresh fields. How can I speed it up?

OK, I'll bite: just how does one set the end value of the scrollBar if 
one does not have an idea of how many loops or how many ticks the 
entire process will take?

Suppose, for example, one is downloading a file.  Changing the 
thumbPosition every fixed number of ticks means that after x tricks the 
progress bar will have the same setting regardless the file size (eg: a 
5MB file download will show exactly the same progress as a 10MB 
download or a 100MB download).

Also, how does one know the progress bar won't get completely to the 
end well before the process is completed?
