A not-so-corner case is where a Wyng user wants to perform frequent backups from very large volumes, even though some of those volumes rarely change. Despite Wyng's existing speed at detecting changes, significant amounts of time can be saved in this use case if Wyng has some way to skip the update_delta_digest() process.
An option like --compare-mtime could be added Since most backup utilities use mtime or ctime, this method could be considered a reliable default for Wyng too, and could shave minutes off monitor and send operations when Petabyte and larger-sized volumes are involved.
It seems this would only work for reflink type storage, not LVM.
