Nice, sounds good. I need to start using this, and the status monitor as 
well.

I realize the plots are slow to produce with the current scripts 
(understandably, np) but conceptually these two things could be integrated?

How is my run progressing, both as a numeric status display and as an 
evolving plot, is something almost all users care about, especially for 
initial runs where the user is asking "is my running running correctly" 
and "is it running as fast as it should/could?"
