Progress indication refreshes too often with --info=progress2
Hi there: I am testing rsync with a large number of small files. I am using 'tee' to keep the log, and I noticed that the log file was growing very quickly. It seems that the progress text refreshes too often: building file list ... ?0 files... ?100 files... ?200 files... ?300 files... ?... ?5.53G? 95%??? 8.50MB/s??? 0:10:20 (xfr#478709, to-chk=9/537759) ?5.53G? 95%??? 8.50MB/s??? 0:10:20 (xfr#478710, to-chk=8/537759) ?5.53G? 95%??? 8.50MB/s??? 0:10:20 (xfr#478711, to-chk=7/537759) ?5.53G? 95%??? 8.50MB/s??? 0:10:20 (xfr#478712, to-chk=6/537759) That's one refresh per file! I believe the user console's speed may limit rsync's performance in such scenarios. I think the progress messages should refresh once every 500 ms at most. Thanks, ? R.
