You are correct in your analysis. Using rdiff-backup locally + rsync

Wouldn't that still leave the same fundamental problem - that using
NFS rather than rsync or rdiff-backup to access the backup storage
means that the system has to read the files from storage across the
network in order to work out what needs to be copied ?
You're right, of course. The main difference is that the rdiff-backup
"snapshotting" would be fast (and therefore, more likely to get a
consistent snapshot), and would let the rsync process churn away in the
background.
