A tar incremental looks only at the timestamps on the target directory (and
will
miss new or moved files with old timestamps). Rsync compares directory entries
with the last full run to catch any new files regardless of timestamps and to
note any deletions. And it still transfers the entire directory tree before
starting. If you have a very large number of small files that never change,
you
might improve things by moving them into larger zip or tar archives.
