On Linux I use clonezilla, which understands the EXT3 filesystem, and

On FreeBSD, I have to fill the 1TB drive with zero-filled files, then
delete them, on each partiton, since CloneZilla uses DD+gzip on the
entire drive.

Some of the development versions of Clonezilla do understand UFS. It's
been a few months since I looked at this, and I need to go back and
figure out exactly which.

I tried a version of Clonezilla that understood ufs and it was really fast copying a slice: It did not understand disklabels and copied only the a partition pretending that it did the entire slice.

Did you try to copy a slice with multiple partitions?
