INFO: Analyzed X targets message is confusing #28092
Description
Description of the bug:
On my repo, a build logged the following message:
INFO: Analyzed 5 targets (2781 packages loaded, 279953 targets and 384 aspects configured)
I was surprised by the 384 aspects until Fabian explained that it's not 384 different aspect implementations, but 384 targets touched by aspects.
How about the following rewording (or something similar) to make things clearer?
INFO: Analyzed 5 targets (2781 packages loaded, 280337 targets configured (384 by aspects))
Another (slightly longer) option would be
INFO: Analyzed 5 targets (2781 packages loaded, 279953 targets configured, 384 targets visited by aspects)
