+About the same, I think. I had started trying to figure out a way to do a\r
+smarter dump (only dumping changed info) for my distributed\r
+tagging/bug-tracking idea, and had some early success, though the python\r
+implementation kills some of the speed gains. (Do play with it though!)\r
+But in your case, dumping probably isn't the lag so much as restoring,\r
+right?\r
+\r
+What about: \r
+nm dump master>master-dump; nm dump copy >copy-dump; \r
+diff copy-dump master-dump | grep "^>" | etc...\r
+\r
+This could all be scripted with scp or curl to do the networking\r
+between machines.\r
+\r
+Smarter (history- and namespace-aware) dumping could only improve this,\r
+of course, and is very possible. But the abovr approach seems like it\r
+would remove the restore bottleneck (unless I misunderstand how restore\r
+works with unlisted messages).\r
+\r
+Best,\r
