The first command is transferring the file and the second is not, because the file has already been transferred. That's why the first command is taking longer.

As the man page description of --progress says, that rate is the rate at which the receiver is reconstructing the file, which could be much higher than the actual bandwidth being used when compression or the delta-transfer algorithm is enabled. -- Matt -- Please use reply-all for most replies to avoid omitting the mailing list.
