Set a cronjob to rsync a directory every hour. How to do in real time?

A directory (folder) on one computer is rsynced to another computer on my LAN, every hour. So, whatever I put in that folder is duplicated on two machines.

The next question is, how does one set this up to occur in real time, rather than only hourly? I suppose cron would always have to be checking the folder for new content, but does it affect your CPU and/or RAM to have cron always be checking?
