1. You may mount the ploop snapshot to some mountpount (e.g.) /mnt, and make the incremental file-based backup of that mountpoint. Then, you can restore it file by file.
2. Yes, from our experience, ploop contains overhead (yes, around 10%).
There is a pcompact tools, which somehow compact the ploop file automatically upon certain threshold.
Comparing to other, like KVM qcow2, there are also some storage overhead too.
From my personal experience, if you have a number of containers, each container contains a number of files, ploop performs faster than simfs over time.
