pv 1.8.14-1 is now available in Cygwin. This release has a few new features
and bug fixes since the previous Cygwin release, version 1.8.10-1. See the
upstream changelog[1] for the list of changes.

pv - Pipe Viewer - is a terminal-based tool for monitoring the progress of
data through a pipeline. It can be inserted into any normal pipeline between
two processes to give a visual indication of how quickly data is passing
through, how long it has taken, how near to completion it is, and an estimate
of how long it will be until completion. Additional support is available for
multiple instances working in tandem, to give a visual indicator of relative
throughput in a complex pipeline.

For pv fun watching your computer send zeros to the bit bucket, run

pv --stop-at-size --size 100G </dev/zero >/dev/null
