I wonder how well rsync would have fared here.

  Rsync can die just from scanning the whole directory tree of files first.

    The incremental option(enabled by default) introduced in rsync 3.0 greatly reduces the need for scanning the whole directory structure.

    If it's changing? You'd snapshot (assuming either LVM or BtrFS) then rsync of the snapshot.
