Nice tool. If the following lines are added after the calculation and before the "clc" command, you don't need an initial estimate for completing one iteration. The progess bar will be printed after the first iteration is completed.

if i==1
  time_for_this_iteration = toc;
end

 Note that variable "max" is actually a function in a Matlab, therefore it is strongly advised not to use it.

Great idea
