Firstly I'd like to say thanks for putting your time in on this plugin, I've only been using it for a few days but it has so much potential.

I initially had scraping enabled and even with just 2 clients - 1 master client (lounge) and 1 standard client (bedroom) both syncing to/from a NAS shared db folder; there were thousands of records being updated on every sync pass. Following your suggestions above this has settled down and things seem to be working as intended now.

Is it true that the current goal is that (apart from watched flags/position) have database should be a exact copy of the others. I can see how this insulates you from any specifics about the data, your, in essence, just keeping all data in sync. However with some small data aware tweaks things could run more efficiently and GUI scraping could occur just on the master client.

Perhaps I'm missing something but if TVSeries.options "doFolderWatch" and MovingPictures.settings "importer_gui_enabled" were not replicated couldn't GUI scraping be just run on the Master client without issues?

I've also been looking at the logs and it seem a lot of data is synced just to keep some status flags updated eg: TVSeries.online_series.lastupdated TVSeries.local_episodes.isavailable and it could be worth ignoring changes of this type to.
