It says "continuous" but I don't really see how it is. Or, at least, I get that the backin-up is continuous, since litestream is watching the WAL. But in the example there, isn't `restore` called manually to pick up the change?

Is the idea you just kind of "poll" restore? That seems like a lot of extra work, if I'm reading that example correctly. It pulls down the whole database every time? Even a "small" SQLite DB (for the use cases I'm thinking of) can easily be a hundred megabytes. I don't think I'd want to poll that every few seconds.
