You'll need the same basic startup time (and memory) to identify the file
list,
but at that point it should be quite fast at skipping to only the files that
need to be transferred (providing you let it identify such files by size and
timestamp - the default operation).
However, I'm not sure I follow what you are currently running - are you
using rsync to sort of "bootstrap" your backup repository? If that's the
case, then it can be more efficient to just transfer the files via a
standard
copy mechanism (you don't have any of the overhead of rsync at all) or use
rsync with the -W (whole file, no incremental computations) option that very
first time.
