Since you aren't concerned with security and want more speed, why not
run a rsync as a server? With ssh and rsh, you are using a remote
shell program as the transport. If you insist on using rsh, double
check your server logs.

from the man page for rsync:
"It is also possible to use rsync without a remote shell as the
transport. In this case you will connect to a remote rsync server
running on TCP port 873".
