[desktop-discuss] I just saw a minute go by in 8 seconds.

[Lars Tunkrans]

I was using the  Nautilus DVD burner on SNV B78  to dump some files onto a DVD-R disc . 
  It initially stated that the burn process would take  1 hour and 20 minutes .  

  Then I thought  that I must be traveling at relativistic speeds here because the seconds  are
 hurtling past way to fast. 

  No seriously   the minutes only  lasted for about  8 - 12  seconds, something is wrong 
  with the algorithm that  estimates the duration of the burn
