There is a new version of Carbon Copy Cloner out.


What's new in this version:
Added support for HFS+ filesystem compression that was introduced in  
Snow Leopard.
To correspond with how the Finder and Disk Utility report these values  
on Snow Leopard, CCC will now use base 10 for reporting MB and GB on  
Snow Leopard. CCC will continue to use base 2 to report these values  
when booted from Leopard or Tiger.
Improved the performance of backing up a large number of files with  
extended attributes.
It is no longer a requirement that CCC be installed on media that  
supports the setuid bit.
Added a bootability notification that will notify users when a target  
volume's underlying disk is partitioned with the MBR partitioning  
scheme (rather than the Apple-recommended GUID or APM partition scheme).
Increased the increment value of the disk image segment size stepper  
from 1 to 25. Now it takes mere seconds to get from 650MB to 4.6GB.
Addressed an issue in which the source and target menus would not be  
properly updated if a disk disappears unexpectedly in the middle of a  
backup task.
CCC now properly excludes the Time Machine database when backing up a  
hard drive using the "Backup everything" cloning method in file-level  
mode.
Much like the Snow Leopard update, this release includes hundreds of  
tweaks and adjustments to improve performance and reliability.
