Is it that it depends on the options you choose? If you just use rsync (duplicity aside, forgetting it even exists), it does a full copy and then every time you run rsync, it just copies differences every time you run it. duplicity works in terms of full and incremental backups, so if you do a full and then continue doing incrementals for 3, 6, 12, etc. months, you will continue to use more disk space on the remote side -- plus a longer time to restore for it to read through all of those.
