I've only read the summary, but that at least sounds interesting :)
I do what I think is right. But I don't think that what I think is right can not be wrong.

I would not want to have to handle 60TB of database dumps. No, I wouldn't.
I already hate handling them if they grow beyond 5GB ;)

(Although I have to admit respect for DB programmers. I have witnessed a quick-hack script in PLSQL run 20+ times faster in the database than a local list search/comparison after downloading the data.)
