Why don't you do something like what Mail.app does for its progress
indicators (simple circles that fill in pie-chart style)?
Because then I'd have to draw my own progress indicators and it would be
a non standard control and in my opinion just as bad HIG wise as using
the spinning indicators. I actually wanted to use Bar style progress
indicators but they were using so much CPU they where causing
significant performance issues.
The application runs a multi threaded, CPU intensive, long running task.
This was a simple change in style and as Interface Builder left the
indeterminate check box unchecked when I changed the style I saw nothing
wrong with using them.
Insert a rant about Apple's lack of respect for the HIG and their custom
controls clearly showing that they are aware that certain controls are
not up to the job in hand.
