rsync probably thinks it doesn't need to check the file, especially if
dates/sizes match what it expects.

the '-c' checksum option will force it to look closer. You'll probably need
this to force rsync to check/update the file. This is also probably the
cpu burn you mentioned in your other message. 600MB of checksumming can
eat some cycles.
