Something else to consider is that from the next major version of GNU Coreutils, cp will default to copy-on-write (“--reflink=auto”) on supported filesystems. This is lightning fast, and saves disk space too.
I expect that rsync will gain equivalent capabilities in time, but it doesn’t have them yet.
