An alternative to du or find - let's say you're finishing an incomplete copy or doing an in-place update with deletes - is to use rsync -ai --dry-run to get the same file list the main run will be passing to pv

As zerodeuz specified, use "df" only when you are rsyncing the whole partition, as df -i /source gets the number of inodes (files) from all the partition in which /source reside. Otherwise use 'find' to count files inside a directory inside the "$()" expression.
