Hello, thanks for bringing this topic up, and it would be excellent if we could come of with a generic solution for this in base R. It is one of the top frequently asked questions and requested features in parallel processing, but also in sequential processing. We have also seen lots of variants on how to attack the problem of reporting on progress when running in parallel. As the author

Hello R-devel, A function to be run inside lapply() or one of its friends is trivial to augment with side effects to show a progress bar. When the code is intended to be run on a 'parallel' cluster, it generally cannot rely on its own side effects to report progress. I've found three approaches to progress bars for parallel processes on CRAN: - Importing 'snow' (not
