DbDumper reads every prefixed table through the Nextcloud connection in
one REPEATABLE READ (read-only) transaction, with keyset pagination on
the primary key, and streams each table as JSON lines into its own blob
stream (BlobWriter), so unchanged tables are deduplicated. Restore
replaces table contents in one transaction and resets PostgreSQL
sequences.
Spike C (NC34, PostgreSQL, standard image without pg_dump/pgsql ext):
300k-row table with bytea: dump 6.3s / 50 MiB peak, 94 MiB JSON -> 20 MiB
stored; unchanged second dump stores nothing; restore makes every table
checksum-identical and all 110 sequences continue above the maximum.
Content-addressed repository on an IBackend (local implementation):
4 MiB blobs, deflate when it helps, each blob encrypted with its id as
associated data, ~32 MiB packs with an encrypted header, one index file
per pack, snapshots as encrypted JSON lines written last.
Spike B: 390 MiB tree, peak 54 MiB; unchanged run reads nothing; a 1 MiB
change in a 300 MiB file uploads one blob; full and partial restore are
bit-identical; tampering is detected.
