rsync CPU usage is not symmetric, this could be "normal".
But it has spikes of 100% or a continuous use of 100%?
Are you working in a local LAN?
Is transfer imited by LAN speed? by HDD speed? by CPU speed?
In that case, for files not too long, it may be "better" CPU-wise to use
the normal check for date instead of the full block hash checking...
