First, HTTrack always tries to minimize the download flow by interrogating the server about the file changes. But, because HTTrack has to rescan all files from the begining to rebuild the local site structure, it can take some time. Besides, some servers are not very smart and always consider that they get newer files, forcing HTTrack to reload them, even if no changes have been made!
