Short of waiting for 'rsync' to timeout, is there any way to see the
current status of an rsync backuppc backup, such as:
- Current average 'transfer rate'
- Time last byte was transferred
Sometimes, especially when backing up laptops, it's hard to know if
the ssh connection has been disrupted and
I tend to look in the top, if rsync is in progres, it its some CPU. It
does not, if it hangs.

While all of that is true, the answers so far still seem to be kind of like
looking at the parking lot outside the ice hockey arena. (Well, at least,
pre-Covid days anyways.) Is there a game going on or is it a pre-game show
listing players? Is the zamboni on the ice? Which game is in which

Strace'ing the rsync process - possibly at both ends - gives you a
pretty detailed view of what is happening if you can interpret it.
Yeah, that “if you can interpret it” part gets really hard when it looks like:
select(7, [6], [], [6], {tv_sec=60, tv_usec=0}) = 1 (in [6], left {tv_sec=59,
tv_usec=99})
read(6,
"\0\200\0\0\4\200\0\7\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0"...,
32768) = 27748

Additionally, 'top' only tells you what is happening now (or in the
last few second sampling period).
What I really want to know is when was the last time data was
successfully transferred across the rsync/ssh pipe which generally
would signal that the backup is progressing vs. being stalled on a

The ls rendition is super useful, and keeps extra packages off the machine.
Thanks for that one.
