The reason why group communication software is used is simply because
this software is designed with two goals in mind:

1) optimize bandwidth usage

2) make many-to-many communication easy

Number one is done by utilizing things like multicasting where
available.

Number two is done by using global scoped queues.

I add this only to avoid reading that pushing some PITR log snippets via
FTP or worse over a network would do the same. It did not in the past,
it does not do right now and it will not do in the future.
