Regarding the issue https://github.com/slic3r/Slic3r/issues/1766, it will be great to have a field that enables the calibration of the resulting estimate.

For example, Repetier Host has a percentage field that allows the user to manually fix the real machine print time deviation, screenshot below: After some real printing tentative you can type the required correction on this field and the routine will apply this correction before display the result to user.

Hi @thiagopeixoto16

I have a python routine that calculates the total time to print a part based on speed profiles. You can check it out at https://github.com/rafaquelhodev/3D-printer-time-calculator.

It requires some specs of your printer (acceleration, jerk speed, etc).

It would be nice if you are able to test it. Cheers!
