Rsync doesn't compare every file over and over unless you tell it to or
you don't tell it to sync timestamps (which is part of -a). Otherwise
it compares the file size and mtime. If those are the same it assumes
the contents are the same.
The only reason you are getting a listing of all files is that you are
using -v twice. If you just use -iv you will only see files that rsync
is doing something with and why rsync is doing something with them.
