What about checkpoints ?

Would you show the "^checkpoint starting" and "^checkpoint complete" logs
surrounding a slow COPY ?

Sorry, it was late last night, I meant to include the checkpoint info. I didn’t have enough logs around the one I pointed out above, my tail got aborted by a reboot.  Working on a log server… From an earlier one:
