It might be interesting to add this patch to the next commit fest
where you could get a formal review:
https://commitfest.postgresql.org/action/commitfest_view?id=20
Then just be sure to attach a patch file properly to your email such
as people can grab and test the patch easily.

I can't comment on the usefulness of this patch, but the first hunk in
progress_report does not conform to the code style guidelines of the
project.

Would it not make more sense to instead store the last number printed, and
only print it if the percentage has changed? AIUI with this patch we still
print the same thing on top of itself if it takes >1 second to get 1%
further.
(Except for verbose mode - but if you're asking for verbose mode, you are
*asking* to get lots of output)

Printing out progress periodically is IMHO slightly better as the
interactive user can see that there is some progress (e.g. by pressing
enter for a new empty console line) during a huge basebackup operation.
The original problem I wanted to address was that I had a daemon
watching over the basebackup process and reading its output to make sure
that the basebackup is proceeding properly. It also wrote all the output
to a logfile for postmortem analysis. The log file grew to a very big
size (multiple gigabytes due to the progress prints). With my patch the
log was only a few kilos, without any negative effects. The excessive
progress reporting can also be an issue in an interactive session over a
slow network (mobile), hogging both time and bandwidth.
Cheers,
Mika

That's an argument I hadn't considered - but I still think it's acceptable
to wait until the next percentage digit in this case.

Yeah, I was guessing it was something like that. I didn't realize you'd
actually monitor it through a deamon (I've just looked at the output
filesize when minitoring things like that), but the remote connection was
easily reproducible. I definitely agree we should do something about it.

Thank you for updating the patch!
I have reviewed it easily.
I didn't get error of compile, and the patch works fine.
I have one question.
What does it mean the calling progress_report() which you added at end
of ReceiveUnpackTarFile() and RecieveTarFile()?
I could not understand necessity of this code. And the force argument
of progress_report() is also same.
If you would like to use 'force' option, I think that you should add
the comment to source code about it.

I think the idea in the new progress_report() call (with force == true)
is to make sure that there is at least one progress_report call that
actually writes the progress report. Otherwise the final report may go
missing if it gets suppressed by the time-based check. The force
argument as used in the new call skips that check.

I understood.
I have two concerns as follows.
- I think that there is possible that progress_report() is called
frequently ( less than 1 second).
That is, progress_report() is called with force == true after
progress_report was called with force == false and execute this
function.
- progress_report() is called even if -P option is disabled. I'm
concerned about that is cause of performance degradation.

I think the idea in the new progress_report() call (with force == true)
is
to make sure that there is at least one progress_report call that
actually
writes the progress report. Otherwise the final report may go missing
if it
gets suppressed by the time-based check. The force argument as used in
the
new call skips that check.
I understood.
I have two concerns as follows.
- I think that there is possible that progress_report() is called
frequently ( less than 1 second).
That is, progress_report() is called with force == true after
progress_report was called with force == false and execute this
function.
- progress_report() is called even if -P option is disabled. I'm
concerned about that is cause of performance degradation.
I looked over the latest version, and the only real problem I see here is
your second point, which is the calling with -P not specified. I doubt it's
going to be much, but in theory I guess the call to time(NULL) many times
could have an effect. I've fixed that by just moving it to after a check
for showprogress.
As for the first one - I believe that's the point. progress_report should
be called with force==true after it was called with it false, that's the
intended design.
I've applied the patch, with that minor adjustment and an added comment.
