For this amount of data it would really make sense for the person responsible to put the small effort in it and use the orphaned nodes for the import, not delete and recreate because you have code ready to do this. Also maybe people should sort big changesets using something like the script at [1] before uploading, so all nodes don't come before ways, before relations.
