I give my first vote because I think it could be an intereting question to reveal partially how the contest was evolved. I do not have time to explore myself. But I believe in most times when people cloned a leading entry because they just wanted to make quick but small changes to the code, such as tweaking a parameter, applying a small acceleration trick, etc. For more cases, people may copy the leading code to local machine to have a run or a close study before make any changes to the code. To detect such clone will be more challenge. Also, it must have some correlations between the number of children and the time length of a leanding entry had.
