key word "approximation".  ☺

assuming that not all of your tree is in cache,
moving the blocks over the wire would be much
faster than the disk access.  assuming just gbe,
you should be able to copy 50mb/s out of and
back into the same venti server.  how big are
your snapshots that this would be a problem?

i don't know enough about fossil's structure, but i think
you could write a specialized.
