That doesn't make much sense to me for an rsync type backup.  I would
expect the level2 to have to do more work server-side to merge the
directory info of the prior full and incremental.  A level0 (full)
should take much longer to read all the data but not much more
bandwidth to exchange the block checksums.     You might improve your
overall timing if you can split the runs into several top level
directories, using different host entries with a ClientNameAlias
pointing back to the same host.  That would let you overlap runs and
skew the days when fulls happen.
