Not necessarily.  Rsync is pretty efficient: we're still basically
distributing just (blockwise) diffs.  And we can always do XO-to-XO
later: the important thing is to get a rock-solid basis.  The selling
point (to me) is the simplicity.  Like I said: its the simplest thing
that works.

I can do some benchmarks if people actually need to see numbers.
