I have two servers, one of them a backup of the other ... right now, I'm 
using rsync to do it, but since rsync has to traverse both servers file 
systems to do its comparison, it puts a good load on the system, and takes 
awhile to run ...

So, are there any better tools I could be using, instead of rsync?

Thanks ...
