Not on my system(s). It sped up for all of a day, then back to the same. And 
yes, my portage is up to date...

Actually, this is gone. Maybe you should try an "emerge --sync" and update 
portage afterwards. ;-)

speedup relates to the transfer of the files via rsync, not the metadata

Thats why it comes straight after the files have been transferred and
before the metadata processing.

In fact the speedup message is generated by rsync, blame rsync's authors
