Enable checksum-caching, modify IncrLevels so that you don't re-transfer more and more data during each incremental. Also, I frequently add bwlimit to rsync so it doesn't 'flood' the remote link during backups. This can allow me to do some backups during periods which would otherwise not be possible (ie, business hours).
