Not in this case: for large file transfer (think about 40+ GB), this 
would cause excessive load on the receiving side. Anyway, having or not 
"--inplace" does not shows very different network transfer, at least in 
these specific tests.

What surprises me is that rsync does not try to concurrently scan both 
files. Is this the expected behavior?

Thanks.
