Also, have you upgraded your Win2K8 to 6.2.1?
That client version does "true" incremental backups of Win2K8, that is backing 
up only the system state files that have actually changed.  That should help 
with the problem over time.

It is often the case that such backups are segregated on their own volumes, 
where that allows you to perform a Delete Volume to dispose of the stuff in a 
meta manner.
