Would a Perl Rsync implementation be better? http://search.cpan.org/~cbarratt/File-RsyncP-0.52/

We are looking at synchronising large amounts of data each night, including some 200+gb databases. Rsync seems to handle this situation a lot nicer than robocopy (which we use now), as it only copies block level changes to the file (robocopy does the whole thing again). I have looked at installing rsync using the Cygwin method, but it seems a bit clunky for my liking.
