> but it does print an overall speed estimate at the end anyway Oh yeah, my point is that if there's no `status=progress` support or if someone forgot to add it then in-flight progress and speed can be displayed in a pinch, and that feature is not well known. "Every second" is a `while sleep 1` + `kill -INFO` loop away. A typical full output of it is: load: 2.91 cmd: dd 82396 running 0.02u 2.03s 87770+0 records in 87770+0 records out 92033515520 bytes transferred in 2.149378 secs (42818673830 bytes/sec) So if one uses `bs=1m` (which I frequently do, but always forget about status=progress) then records in/out will be in MiB.
