in thread Stats for super search look buggy

Thanks, as promised I wanted to do it myself this weekend (Pentecost brings an extra holiday in DE :)

> Please let me know whether things look better now

They definitely look better now, but it's still weird

Please try this search

The first reply looks OK

Found 50 nodes roughly between 2021-05-20 and 2018-06-02 (searched 4. +01% of DB). ... Press [NEXT >] to continue searching remaining 95.99% of DB.

but after [NEXT] it doesn't add up anymore

Found 50 nodes roughly between 2018-06-02 and 2015-02-16 (searched 7. +80% of DB). ... Press [NEXT >] to continue searching remaining 88.18% of DB.

That's less than 100%

If you want I can care about it this weekend.

    Sure, if you'd like to look into it, that would be great. Thanks!

      All fine, you already fixed the bug, thanks! :)

      The perceived "weirdness" was by design.

      The upper percentage is only indicating the current search-span, not the sum of all already searched nodes.

      That's how the numbers here have to be interpreted:

      4.01% + 7.80% + 88.18% == 100%

      (modulo rounding error)

      It was always like this, so no reason to complain! =)
