Remove Roughly Matched Duplicate Images

When scanning for new metadata, I see the following checkbox:

Remove Roughly-Matched Duplicate Images (Recommended)

What exactly does this do?  It sounds like it identifies if an image already exists on my system (that matches the online database) and deletes it and re-downloads the new image.

When this feature is on after you download an image it attempts to look at both images to see if they are the same image (visually speaking) if so the tool keeps the best quality image and deletes the lesser quality image. Leaving this one helps find and remove duplicates but at the cost of severely increased download/processing time.
