[Bug 1001579] Re: Incorrect file transfer progress bar

 

I can confirm the problem exists on my home and work Ubuntu machines. My config is Ubuntu 15.04, Linux 3.19.0-16-generic #16-Ubuntu SMP  x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux. Both of them utilize SSD:
ATA device, with non-removable media
	Model Number:       Samsung SSD 840 PRO Series              
	Serial Number:      S1ATNSAF209621N     
	Firmware Revision:  DXM05B0Q
	Transport:          Serial, ATA8-AST, SATA 1.0a, SATA II Extensions, SATA Rev 2.5, SATA Rev 2.6, SATA Rev 3.0

And because of that. like unwucht, I have plenty of corrupted USB, and
this is rather frustrating.

Title:
  Incorrect file transfer progress bar

Status in The Linux Kernel:
  Confirmed
Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  When I am transferring data from my PC to USB storage device, the
  transfer rate shown during the process is completely incorrect. So,
  also the progress bar.

  Please check the attached screen shot:

  It is showing the transfer rate to be : 31.5MB/sec while my USB drive
  only supports maximum of 7MB/sec. Similarly the progress bar is shown
  as 100% completed but internally still it is transferring the data and
  took almost another 1 minute to finish. Till the end of this process I
  am clueless whether the transfer is still going on or there is some
  hang.

  Even though it's not a blocking issue but surely an usability issue.
