Workloads report too much or unclear information in a few scenarios:

In all cases, we should evaluate the output and consider better terminal UX:

  • judicious use of color to highlight specific portions of output, instead of entire lines
  • potentially use progress bars to represent long-running actions
  • print status messages to stderr instead of stdout
