Indeed I wasn't aware of the delta transfer feature of rsync. I was
thinking that it was only file based (not file content). So BackupPC
might be OK for all my machines.

I have two other questions:

Is it possible to run a command before a backup (cannot remember that in
the documentation and SF.net in troubles). For example, stop MySQL
before the copy of its catalog files?

I have a bunch of rdiff-backup data. Can I easily transform that to the
BackupPC storing format?
