Couple of things:

1) Use a 9600 bps modem and you won't over run you buffer! :)
2) Using tftp will be fine since it won't kick in until all of it has been uploaded.
3) Using tftp on the running configuration should not miss *any* lines. If you are missing lines, then something else is going on. I regularly tftp hundreds of lines of ACL with nary a problem.
