Both my systems are already up-to-date. I'm just getting the images for
backup, new installs and to share via torrent.

I saw one poster mention rsync. I would expect the rebuilds had lots of
underlying lib changes along with some higher-level code. I suspect
rsync wouldn't match a lot.

More than you think. My local yum RPM repositories mirror rsync on 4.6 matched 60% of the existing stuff (exclusive of the ISOs, which I haven't synced yet). When you are talking gigabytes, that isn't anything to sneeze at.
