I think the idea is interesting, however there are a few problems in the patch.
First, I think that it should only be done in the VERBOSE OFF mode. If you ask
for a VERBOSE output you don't need both the details and the summarized
version.
Other minor problems:
- why (only) emitting the number of workers planned and not the number of
workers launched?
- the textual format is missing details about what the numbers are, which is
particularly obvious since avgSpaceUsed and peakSpaceUsed don't have any unit
or even space between them:
+ "Sort Method: %s %s: " INT64_FORMAT INT64_FORMAT "kB\n",
+ sortMethod, spaceType, avgSpaceUsed, peakSpaceUsed);
