That's the clever thing about rdiff-backup saving reverse diffs... if the file hasn't changed, it doesn't consume any space. There can still be a subtle advantage over rsync, because if something bad happens (like files or directory being inadvertently deleted) to the source and you don't notice before the cron job does the periodic rsync you end up with a second copy of that new tree... while rdiff-backup would let you back-up in time before the accident.
