[mapguide-users] DWF Viewer progress bar?

Perhaps this is a silly question, but here is goes:

Does anybody know exactly how the progress bar in the DWF operates? On 
each map request, there seems to be three stages...

1) No progress bar (no significant CPU activity)
2) Progress bar appears with very tiny amount of progress (CPU starts 
working)
3) Progress bar updating and map updating (CPU is working)

There are actually two different progress bars (one on top of each 
other) which are working in tandem with each other. Does anyone know 
precisely how to interpret them? The Below URL explains for a 
multi-sheet DWF.

How does one interpret them in the context of a DWF map? Specifically, 
we are wondering about the pause at stage #2. Is that when the client 
has started recieving data, recieved all data? Is the pause at stage #2 
utterly insignificant? Anybody know?
