#2899: progress display is now too slow for common operations Changes (by pdmef):
* milestone: => 1.6 Comment: After thinking about the argument that some operations may be slower for a certain message than for others, I think all _inc variables are pretty pointless and basically agree with the patch. However, I think the sysconf() thing is superflous, since my manpage for times() says it's obsoleted by gettimeofday() and I neither see a need for going with system ticks nor something being wrong with gettimeofday(). Also I think progress just once per second should be enough, or make it configurable, or... I'm not really sure, but a minor style issue: I think it's cleaner to have the last clock value in progress_t rather than in static vars. Since the feature is new since 1.4., I'm marking this to be solved before 1.6. -- Ticket URL: <http://dev.mutt.org/trac/ticket/2899#comment:2>
