This really seems like a fun solution, but not a pragmatic one. AI overhead shouldn't be a real issue anymore on modern hardware. That said if you have a DB with volatile data that modifies 30% to 40% of your DB daily, I'm curious how something like that is practical in the real world even with incrementals. IMO Probkup is great for small DBs, once you move into 200GB+ you want to be using PROQUIET + SAN level snap backups ("mirror split") and AI for point in time recovery. Also a replicated DB is by far your best bet for RTO (assuming no one FOR EACH ... DELETED your DB). Prorest is really only worth the time if you need a RPO in the past. Probkup/Prorest requires hours of downtime assuming a sizable db.
