I think you will need to use assignments to do this, in other words,
I can't see how this cold be done in a purely functional way. But in
a procedural way, here is an example. Suppose we run:
Do[u[i] = Prime[i], {i, 1, 10^8}]
which should take long enough for the demonstration. First evaluate
the above and then choose Enter Subsession form Kernel/Evaluation
menu. The evaluation ought to be interrupted and you can check the
values computed so far:
(Dialog) In[3]:=
u[22]
(Dialog) Out[3]=
79
etc.
(Dialog) In[5]:=
Length[DownValues[u]]
(Dialog) Out[5]=
206267
will tell you the number of values mathematica has computed. When you
want to continue with the evaluation just choose Exit Subsession form
the same menu.
