No progress from push when using bitmaps

Today I tried pushing a copy of linux.git from a client that had bitmaps into a JGit server. The client stalled for a long time with no progress, because it reused the existing pack. No progress appeared while it was sending the existing file on the wire:

  $ git push git://localhost/linux.git master
  Reusing existing pack: 2938117, done.
  Total 2938117 (delta 0), reused 0 (delta 0)
  remote: Resolving deltas:  66% (1637269/2455727)
This is not the best user experience. :-(
