Why is multi's rsync file so large?

Am I doing something wrong with my rsycn?

I'm thinking that multi should be, at most, the sum of the parts of the other lists... In fact, it should really probably should be **smaller** than the sum of its parts because of MUCH overlapping data getting consolidated in multi.

...and some of these lists are no longer used in multi (or never were to begin with). Given the size of the component parts, shouldn't the multi file be somewhere around 10-20 MBs?
