Description

loo has been running for four hours now on seven cores. I have no idea when it will finish, so intermittent progress reports would be great (e.g., every 10%). Specifically, I'm using brms::LOO(brmsfit) which I believe calls loo in the background.

Research direction

Start by tracing the brms::LOO(brmsfit) entry point into loo and identify the long-running computation described in the issue. Done means users receive intermittent progress reports, such as updates at roughly 10% intervals, while the calculation runs.
