@garrensmith Thanks for the reply. It's accurate as of the moment the stats
is pulled (from `/_active_tasks`) and is calculated. If the rate of change
varies significantly from one moment to the other, then the estimate is going
to fluctuate. As per my testing, when the rate of change stabilizes, the
estimate is more accurate.
That said, the estimate is an estimate after all, and is as good as the
data it can work with. As long as the users are aware of the fact the ETA is
calculated given the data at that moment, I think it's a good piece of
information to show :)
