How is that the case when you use the command

unrar e multipart.rar

and the output is a continuous percentage increase as the tool uncompresses
each folder in succession.

It should be trivial to even throw in an analyzer that detects the number of
partial files, divides to give each part a certain percentage, and increases
the amount completed as each part is traversed. Time to complete could then
also be approximated based on the amount of time it takes to complete one
part.

This is using the assumption that the size of these multipart files is equal
(except for the last one usually).
