Is there anything that could be done to make it unnecessary to pull the complete metadata for every update? For example, IIRC this is all sqlite data, but what if this was in a plain-text data dump form where something like rsync could be used to efficiently transfer only those bits that have changed. Client CPU time to reconstruct the DB is probably cheaper than the bandwidth. Maybe such a mode would only be used if the DB size exceeded some threshold.
