I like having multiple print times. I use absolute extrusion and Cura zeroes the extruder roughly every 10000mm, so estimates on filament usage get knocked out of whack.

David, did you ever check the feasibility of running a g-code file without printing to ascertain the expected print time?

I for one don't find the third file-based estimation method very disturbing but I agree it isn't very accurate (maybe because a single floating-point variable isn't precise enough?).

I implemented that some time ago. See [reprap.org].

The link is not working. I do remember that M37 was the code to simulate a run but what I can't remember is if it ran in a reasonable time and if the result could be used in the web interface as a count down timer, which was one of the suggestions at the time. I am away from my printer at the moment so can't run M3 to see how it works.
