Give me a mechanism to know how many files are on the file system and
I might be able to give you an idea.
Basically this is doing a
find /
I don't think there is a way to know how many files are left.

I was also troubled by the 'endless' stream of asterisks.
Perhaps some sort of heuristic - like disk size(s) divided by 'average'
file size. Also don't know the value of one asterisk - is it 100 files?
A few more experiments would give something that would be +- 30% This
would be better than nothing.
