I don't know about other *async* replication engines but Rserv
keeps track of transactions (if I understood you corectly).
Rserv transfers not individual modified data items but
*consistent* snapshot of changes to move slave database from
one *consistent* state (when all RI constraints satisfied)
to another *consistent* state.

What do you mean?
