Description

I'm trying to simplify a huge (266mb) json file using a tolerance of 0.01. I let the file run for about 30 minutes, but there was no indication of how long it would need to finish so I killed it. Time estimate would be a great feature.

Research direction

The issue names no files or tests; start by locating the CLI entry point that processes GeoJSON and the simplification loop. Determine what progress information is available during a large run, then verify that a useful time estimate is reported while simplifying a 266 MB file with tolerance 0.01.
