I just ran across something at SIMAP which reminded me a little bit of something I enjoyed at FAD. They have a page which shows the progress of each type of unit being crunched and how many total units there are to be crunched.

Anyways, I plan to throw a bit of power over their way as it seems like there is some activity on the administrators side.
