Note that while rsync is certainly above this level of the network,
asymmetric routes are notorious for causing significant issues with
TCP flow control if their latencies happen to differ significantly -
often decreasing throughput and adversely interacting with TCP slow
start and congestion control mechanisms.

In this case the traces don't seem to show major differences in
latency, but if some were to occur, perhaps the increased delays could
trigger latent issues in rsync with the pipelining that it uses?
