I call it just before the execution that it is going to monitor is

model.run();// this can take a while, its what I want to monitor.
So, my problem is that I never see my monitor, no matter how long
the execution process takes. The Timer thing works, because I get a
bunch of my Update objects created, but it all happens AFTER the
call to model.run(), which is not very useful. Its as though the
Timer is somehow not getting started up or something.
That looks like you are running your model on the same thread as the
ProgressMonitor (i.e., the user interface thread). I think you need to
spawn a new thread and run the model from that. Otherwise the UI won't
update until model.run() is finished.
