The Batch keep running over 100%

Same here.

I have been having this issue too. I am updating ~3000 posts, only if they do not have a certain meta value. Once they are updated that meta value is added. When it updates the Total # goes down.

Problem is that every time it runs to update the number processed it runs the setup method again and the query again which then updates the total number. The % then takes the Processed # / Total # to get the % complete. It does what it's supposed to do, but the visual feedback is then incorrect.

I guess the fix, be it when you are creating the batch, or something the author of the plugin adds, is to make sure whatever query you run in setup is only ran once and saved.
