cp is different from rsync and usually not provide enough debug message during file coping, e.g. how many bytes transferred. A simple command can give you a great hand:
watch -n1 ls -la *For sure that you can replace ls -la * as other Linux command/ Try man watch for more information :)
Another useful tips: when download a huge file with wget, we may hope to run as wget -bc, so wget will run as background and give us a log file for monitor. For sure that we can monitor this log file with tail -f -n 50, but what if we have multiple download running in parallel? In this case watch will give us a great hand:
watch -n1 tail -n 10 wget-log*
