I'm not sure I understand your point. IIRC the index file is written "from scratch" in a temporary file and then moved to its final location, but that doesn't mean that all content is re-indexed. Only the new files are indexed, while the rest is, I assume, just taken from the existing index. The --incremental switch does that.
So if that's what you meant, I don't think I can do much about it :-( Unless I change to another indexer, that is :-)
