Moshe - When I worked for a company that hosted their own site the speed to move the information was never an issue (obviously), though the clowns who managed it more mangled it than anything else (though I digress). Speed to the server from my workstation is not unacceptable, but can get a little clumsy at times. The real advantage I see is that I can quickly and easily examine the test database locally (before I could use the SQL Query Analyzer to do pretty much the same thing).
It would be great if someone a whole lot smarter than me had a way of doing this.
