[ILUG] Sync sw

Hi all,

I'm looking for a program that will mirror nfs directories every few
hours. Each directory could have hundreds of gigs of data. rsync just
doesn't cut it because it needs to build an index of files to see what has
changed and looking through these indexs can take longer than the sync! Is
there any software that syncs at a block level? I relaise that using an
index may have to be necessary so is there a way of speeding this up?

Thanks,
