Long time ago, i wrote something to transfer database table from Informix to Oracle, i used a spinner. It may help you. 

 sub transfer_Data {
  my $stn = shift;
  my $dtn = shift;
  $| = 1;
  my @spinner = ('|','/','-','\\');
  my $ifmx_stmt = "select count(*) from $stn" ;
  my $sth_ifmx = $db_ifmx->prepare($ifmx_stmt);
  $sth_ifmx->execute;
  my $count = $sth_ifmx->fetchrow();
  print "Total record number: $count \n\n";

  $ifmx_stmt = "select * from $stn" ;
  $sth_ifmx = $db_ifmx->prepare($ifmx_stmt);
  $sth_ifmx->execute;
  my $rn = 1;
  while ( my @row = $sth_ifmx->fetchrow_array ) {
    my $ds = '';
    for ( my $i = 0; $i <@row; $i++ ) {
      my $nd = trim($row[$i]);
      $nd =~ s/'/''/g;
      my $check = match_DateList($i);
      if ( $check ) {
        $ds .= "to_date('$nd', 'MM/DD/YYYY'),";
      } else {
        $ds .= "'$nd',";
      }
    }
    $ds =~ s/,$/)/;
    $ds =~ s/^/(/;
    my $orac_stmt = "insert into $dtn values " . $ds ;
    my $sth_orac = $db_orac->do($orac_stmt);
    print "Record: $rn $spinner[$rn%4]\r";
    $rn++;
  }
  $sth_ifmx->finish;
  print "\nData Transfer is complete \n\n";
  $| = 0;
}
