Feature request: support speed output in MiB/s #243

Open bam80 opened 4 months ago

bam80 commented 4 months ago

MiB/s is a common units for network speed measurements. Partclone should support it too - permanently or at least as an option. Currently, it outputs speed in MB/min only, which is inconvenient as the observer has to convert the units in his head.

It is a good idea to add an option for MiB/s for me. I could add this feature.

add option --binary-prefix to Show progress with bit size(MiB, GiB...) in commit 28c97b3a98878c3344c147f46734e5434ba9b31e

Thank you, this still doesn't add the ability to show speed in Units per seconds, which was part of the original request, does it? Until this is done, it doesn't solve the problem as having the speed in min only still requires the recalculations in mind.

@Thomas-Tsai Could you reopen and add it too, please?

Thank you @Thomas-Tsai , glad you agree with me.
