The download size isn't really relevant, it's the amount of dependencies.
rclone uses Go AFAIR, so that's a lot less to build than Qt5.

I use it regularly, although not with NextCloud (I use the Qt client for
that as I run KDE). It's basically rsync for cloud providers and should
work well with NextCloud, although you won't get the automatic syncing of
changes that you get with the client
