By using --inplace (if I read that right) you'll be xfering the entire 90GB store over the network.
Not exactly. --inplace only prevents the receiver from matching source data using data at an earlier offset in the old destination file (because the receiver will overwrite the old data too soon to use it). (Note to Wayne: I think the man page should state this explicitly, especially because that will make the remark about sorting data matches meaningful to new users.) Thus, if I reason correctly, inserting data in the source file spoils all the matches from there on, while deleting or modifying data does not do any more harm than it would without --inplace.
