This is why Mystic just imports entire nodelists. Just my two cents. I agree `110% Diffs were used in the day because of the cost of dial up and since they were smaller it cost less. Nodelists were very large in the 90's and late 80's and it made more sense then to process DIFF's But today, telnet/internet and much small nodelists there is no longer the need.
