this is more a question than an affirmation because I do not know
anything about the rdiff's mecanisms, but so far I know :

    * with a client/serveur configuration only the files infos and diffs
      go throw the ssh tunnel.
    * If you mount your partition (or sshfs mount if you want) every
      file access will go on the network, which is more slower because
      using more network ressources.


Am I completly wrong ? If yes tell me, it were effectivly more easier to
mount everything on the backup server :)
