I have a db query that take a long time to run. I was wondering if I
could have a progress bar updating while the query is running.
Essentially I would estimate how long the query would take and set a
loop to take approximately the same time.

I have used progress bars in the past.

The part that I do not know how to do (or if it is possible) is to
have the progress bar loop running while other code is simultaneously
running.

Any help is greatly appreciated!
Cheers!
