cimcos toolpaths statistics button shows time estimates for a g-code program, its on the "Nc functions" tab in cimco edit 8, I have never used NC plot but cimco edit definitely has it.

Where is the stats button? I have 'Block Numbers' and 'Insert / Remove' under 'NC Functions tab

Do either of the above take into account accel/decel or allow you to put those values in? 

NCPlot no. But you can put rapids in and toolchange time in.

It worked out to be within 10% every time for me with the Robodrills (and then Feeler drill taps), and also the BT40 machines. Jobs were prismatic mostly ally (80% and 15% stainless) and cycle times from 10 minutes to 45 minutes but averaging around the 30 mins.
