Default how loud in acceleration is "normal?"

I've noticed when getting on the highway ramp from 20 to 60 MPH, that the acceleration is quite noisy. The RPMs jump from 1.5 to 3 with the slightest tap down on the accelerator. How much of this is normal?

you should make a video, but from the description it sounds pretty normal.
