If it is just to the level appropriate for the gear, that is supposed to happen.

yea i guess it spikes to where the rpm's should be for a new gear.... I still think the reving will prematurely wear the engine...no?

Not appreciably, and it will save your trans.

A fraction of a second of unloaded revving isn't really a problem for the engine, but that jump to the next gear can be hell on a transmission.
