Checking cp progress

Hi gurus.
I wonder if there is some command that will help me to determing the progress of cp. I'm copying huge amount of files, and through the

ps x -uoracle see, that it goes

1771 pts/6 S+ 0:37 cp 1_2600_617913793.arc

37 minutes. Is there command, that helps determing on what exactly file he is now and when it's gonna be done?

Thank you,
Maria.
