You're really bad in math, aren't you? :-)
If you used "cp" or "scp" or some other non-differential copying
mechanism, you would have send 33378.82 times the amount of data that
rsync just sent over the wire:
<speedup> = <total size> / (<bytes sent> + <bytes received>)
Or in other words: "The traffic used in this rsync run is
(100/<speedup>) % of the traffic you would have needed when using a
simple copy."
