As people do not tend to change their profile every day a way to save bandwidth is to give users the option to save all profiles offline. Profiles that are changed get a time flag so the software will know to download them.

I know this will cost people a couple of MB on their hard disk but now we can help BBO run faster! To secure privacy the saved profiles can be encrypted or something.
Two wrongs don't make a right, but three lefts do!

We toyed with doing this is 393 but decided to hold off until we think this through. It is a good idea, and i can't see how we will avoid this in the future.
