Hi, I just noticed (this may have been fixed already, I don't know) in the man page for dd(1) where it talks about sending the USR1 signal to dd to get it to print out the stats. The example would print the stats once, wait for 1 sec, then kill the dd :) i.e. the -USR1 is missing from the second kill statement.

   $ kill -USR1 $pid; sleep 1; kill $pid

I apologize if this has been fixed already.  The version is 5.97.
