Their list of technologies make the rsyncable claim questionable in my 
mind, but I have not put them to the test yet.

It's fairly simple to test, really. Create a 100MB file from 
/dev/urandom, sync it, add a couple of bytes (or 17 - a nice number of 
making sure they are not doing block based encryption restarts) 
somewhere around the beginning, and resync. If the resync takes as long 
as the original (space or transit wise), then you know they do not live 
up to their claims.
