I'm going to assume that you mean "1GB" (as in gigabyte) since I have no
idea what a "Go" is. That being said, one of the beauties of rsync is
that it will *not* need to reread the entire file; it will find the
changed parts and only transfer those. There may be a small penalty, but
certainly not rereading the whole file.
