copy replication can be unnecessarily inefficient
Copy replication, although deprecated, should replicate the full transitive closure of an object. However, it uses the current replication spec which may clamp objects, thus substituting stubs in place of the full transitive closure. Since copy replication then copies the resulting client object without adding it to the caches, the copy encounters stubs during replication causing more round trips than necessary.
