That is why I like ZFS: Its send/recv function can do block level syncing, so while the first upload will take a while, subsequent syncs will be much smaller.

Of course, unless you stand up your own VM with a ZFS partition, there are few cloud options for ZFS.

"... there are few cloud options for ZFS."

There is exactly one. You can ZFS send/recv to and from an rsync.net account that is enabled to do that:

OR you can get a plain old rsync.net account and do a "dumb" sync to it and just configure ZFS snapshots on any schedule you like.

Ask about the "HN Discount".
