Yes, the algorithm is conservative and very often wrong until you
get close to the end.  In part this is because resilvering works in time
order, not spatial distance. In ZFS, the oldest data is resilvered first.
This is also why you will see a lot of "thinking" before you see a
lot of I/O because ZFS is determining the order to resilver the data.
Unfortunately, this makes time completion prediction somewhat
difficult to get right.
