That's pretty cool.  Will the listening side of nc allow other 
connections after the first (that would hose your untar)?  I think 
there's a way to listen for just one IP.  None of that matters in BOF's 
case.

So if you do this, where's the bottleneck?  Is it the CPU 
compressing/decompressing, tar reading and writing the disks, or the 
network transfer?  How would you tell?
