rclone is not as good as rsync for doing ad-hoc transfers; for anything not using the filesystem, you need to set up a configuration, which adds friction. It realy is purpose built for recurring transfers rather than "I need to move X to Y just once"

We wrote https://github.com/chorusone/fastsync for fast ad-hoc transfers over multiple TCP streams.
