svn - Missing "transferred kbytes" in TortoiseSVN update or checkout dialog -
in former times, older versions of tortoisesvn (i think @ least tortoisesvn 1.6.x), got feedback how many kbytes or mbytes transferred when using checkout or update dialog in tortoisesvn.
nowadays (with tortoisesvn 1.8.x), information missing. when checkout, see during checkout information flying through transferring @ x kbytes/sec, @ end, get: added: x

why information not more visible? there way see again?
here author of tortoisesvn, stephan küng has answered in forum question:
as why removed: got tired of explaining why total amount of transferred data didn't match users expected. , since matched expectations, why show it?
reasons why doesn't match: total bytes transferred include authentication data (can lot when authenticating against domain), data can compressed, changes sent/received , not whole files, ...
so explains in details why changed (but liked additional information got).
