At least for slower hashes, with a large working set and or few rules.
The ETA simply does not show up, and when it does, it is at 50% or 75%,
etc and stays there for a LONG time.  I am not sure how easy getting this
working properly would be, but as it stands, it has no useful value.

This is not a bug we can simply fix in jumbo. It is a john-proper issue.
