A related annoying thing is the spread of uncalibrated progress bars, that move front to back, then again loop around, giving no visual feed back of the quantum of time yet remaining.

That's what I thought this article would be about when I saw the title. Those are also a pet peeve of mine. If it doesn't track some real measure of progress, just show a spinning hourglass or something to indicate busyness.
