This problem is also mentioned in Will's 28 question list, so I think this defect should have high priority. 

Below is the comments of Will,

19.  Enhancement: during deployment of a RUI app, the progress of the operation sits at 0% almost the entire time, even though it's clearly doing work. I know we are copying a lot of files and we may not know the true status of the operation, but we should do *something* more accurate than just showing 0%. Even setting IProgressMonitor.UNKOWN would be better ...

Set to major because they are things newer developers may run into fairly quickly
Comment 5 Xiao Bin Chen CLA 2011-11-11 07:12:25 EST 
fixed.
Comment 6 fahua jin CLA 2011-11-13 21:41:43 EST 
It has somewhat improvement than RBD now, but the progress update information is still not very accurate.

Verified in 0.7.0.v201111130901.

I noticed that this progress bar is setting the amount of work to unknown

- monitor.beginTask("", IProgressMonitor.UNKNOWN);

If Tony and Will think that the progress we are reporting is acceptable for .7, I think we should defer this until a future release.  An article on best practices for using progress monitors can be found here - https://www.eclipse.org/articles/Article-Progress-Monitors/article.html

A new fix was committed for the IProgressMonitor.UNKNOWN, this fix will count the copy files number as the subMonitorProgress work numbers.

It looks good to me now, verified in 0.7.0.v201111160901.
