# execute a while loop where we compare the old files (number and size) against the zipped files (number and size) with a sleep of 1 second
while true; do clear; echo 'ZIP:'; ls -l *zip | wc -l; du -ch *zip | grep total; echo 'SQL:'; ls -l *.sql | wc -l; du -ch *sql | grep total; date; sleep 1; done
