more comprehensible timing when it is high

importing [                   ] 0% 809869.4s

I don't know how much is 809869.4 seconds. Would it be possible to switch to hours + days when the remaining time is high ?

It will be a good feature addition to https://github.com/visionmedia/node-progress (which I'm using).

I think that it might be long and I won't be sure it so important, but maybe I'm wrong :(

Plus, having that updated too often is wasted CPU time.

You can try status-bar. It displays > 1h and > 1d when the remaining time is bigger than 3600 seconds.

Code used:

Formatter.prototype.time = function (s){
  if (s === undefined) return "--:--";
  if (s >= 86400) return " > 1d";
  if (s >= 3600) return " > 1h";
  var str;
  var min = Math.floor (s/60);
  var sec = Math.floor (s%60);
  return zero (min) + ":" + zero (sec);
};

Status bar is very nice, and can be highly customized, I'll have a look!
