Re: Improvements and additions to COPY progress reporting

Hi,

Thank you all for the suggestions. PFA version 8 of the patchset, in
which I have applied most of your comments. Unless explicitly named
below, I have applied the suggestions.

I saw this being used in (re)index progress reporting, that's where I
took inspiration from. It has been fixed in the attached version.

Yes, I was also not quite happy with this, but couldn't find a better
one at the point of writing the initial patchset. Would
"io_operations", "io_port", "operates_through" or "through" maybe be
better?

With regards,
