Then you get a "Not long."
Sir I must insist on a standardized measurement scale.
I would interpret "not long" as a bad faith answer and become more aggressive.
What if I don't know how long it will take? Trying to figure that out is a quite a bit for me, I have to stop and process what I already completed, what's going on now, and what is left to do. A lot of these commenters are speaking as if the knowledge is being withheld from them, not as though they're making an inquiry of someone who is already working on getting the job done and didn't start with some previously defined end-time that they're winding down to.
Surely you have some idea of the timescale, even if it is wildly inaccurate. There is a difference between "you can watch me finish this" and "call me tomorrow". Just give me your most conservative min/max duration. And if you really have no idea, say so.
