[...] Looking at the code in src/progress.c (version 1.10.2), it would appear that "--.--K/s" is emitted when either the time (hist->total_time) or the byte count (hist->total_bytes) is zero, rather than just when the time is zero. This precludes emitting a "0.0" rate, which would be more informative, in my opinion, than "--.--K/s". I agree, in my view the actual rate should be displayed even when "0.0 K/s", the "--.--K/s" presently is open to interpretation. What do people think of updating to display like that as Steven suggests? Please include my email address in any replies.

When I see a rate like "--.--K/s", I assume that there's not enough info to provide a real number (such as no bytes transferred), not that the value is zero. Steven M.

Hello Hrvoje Niksic, Thank you for your reply. On 13/05/06 19:41, Hrvoje Niksic wrote: "J. Grant" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> writes: I think I may have found a bug, the "ETA" is listed, but not the "K/s" rate, the ETA must have been calculated using an K/s rate determined by the current time into the download. The "--.--" current download rate means that the download is currently not progressing. The ETA calculation is based on the average download rate, and is always available. is the "K/s" rate not the average rate ? That is what would be expected, but perhaps it is the actual current rate instead? I think any stalled-ness should be indicated by "(stalled)" text, rather than modifying the average "K/s" rate. Would you agree? I think it would be very handy to have the average "K/s" rate always displayed. Please include my email address in any replies. Kind regards JG
