Pretty good question.
I guess I'll be at about 40% counting everything as prog that's on PA.
Enough to be the strongest genre. Although quite a bit of this is from the fringes where people are argueing over whether it's prog or not.

About 70 per cent of my archive is prog as I currently understand the term Prog, the rest is either proto prog or prog related i.e. Deep Purple, Beatles, Hendrix ,psych etc..

I'd say 20-40 percent. I still prefer a few other genres, such as alternative rock and hardcore punk. Either way, I've still been a huge prog fan since I was a kid and many of my favorite bands are progressive rock-based.

Hmmm...I've got more Muddy Waters than Gentle Giant. I don't know, maybe 20%.

Probably about 40-60%.
Might calculate the actual percentage if I get bored enough.

third option probably

I also got a little bit of blues and jazz, classic rock, 80s rock, all sorts of metal and some pop, pop-rock.

60%-80%.

Lots of early 90's extreme metal in my collection.

Taking an educated guess ('cos I am not one for keeping any kind of track of the huge mess that is my 'collection') I'd say it has gone from below 30% to above 40% over the last few years. The trend continues.
