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. Diez
