Probably.  For my uses, -i is usually sufficient to dertermine why rync has 
decided to process a file/directory.

I don't think so.  If I understand your issues, you are getting too many files 
copied on the second run.  My first suspect would be user/group ids.

Even if -c determines that the files contain the same content, the files still 
will get copied if the linking rules can not be satisfied.
