[PATCH] perf tools: Separate progress bar update when processing events

From: Jiri Olsa
Date: Wed Sep 04 2013 - 12:28:24 EST


Currently when processing events in __perf_session__process_events
function we we update progress based on the file_size. During the
same processing we update progress bar from within flush_sample_queue
which is based on number of samples count.

Having 2 different based updates is causing the progress bar to
jump heavily back and forth giving not much useful info.

Fixing this by keeping only __perf_session__process_events
based progress bar update. And turning on flush_sample_queue
progress bar update only for final flushing.

This reduces the number of times the progress bar update
function is called and it significantly reduces the loading
time for TUI, where the progress bar update takes quite a lot
of time.
