Actually, the progress bar is the overall progress. So it is more
associated with the 1/6 than the 1151/8236.

It is actually 1/6 + 1/6 * (1151/8236), or 2/6 + 1/6 * (400/600), etc.

That is actually why I moved away from the one you suggested, because it
looks like the progress is discussing the nested loop, when it is
talking about the overall loop.
