You could give cpdup a try (from ports/sysutils/cpdup).
It grew remote sync support recently, too (tunnelled
through ssh).  Works fine for me, but I haven't used it
for syncing very large file systems so far.  However, it
always copies the whole file if it detects a difference
(it doesn't transfer only the diffs), so it's somewhat
less efficient, depending on the usage.

Best regards
