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."
