This is probably cross-project: Adapt sizes and speed units to IEC binary units.

So,

"100%  488MB  11.1MB/s   00:44"

should be displayed as

"100%  488MiB 11.1MiB/s  00:44"

Thanks, but the throughput meter is not that precise and I don't think it's worth changing the output format (it's not unheard of for people to scrape the output for transfer stats).

Move resolved bugs to CLOSED after 5.7 release
