It has been stated in the past that using '--dd-grab-all' actually
results in lower TMS server load(s) due to the way it creates
the data to download (to you).  And while the amount of data
to be transferred might be increased somewhat, the total is
still small in today's view of data sizes (your cat video could
require more data).  Certainly those thinking in terms of dial-up
modems might disagree, but the size really is not the point.

I will also second Michael's point about the data being
"current" when using dd-grab-all.  Just change to it.  You
will like it :-)
