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". 0/10 is quite well defined, even though 10/0 is not. 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.
