Recirculating line save any money?

greenspun.com : LUSENET : The Plumb Truth : One Thread

When repiping a house in So Cal is it feasible to include a recirculating hot water line if for example the back-to-back bathrooms are 35 feet away from the water heater, which is located in the garage. If saving water creates the savings how long would it take to recover the extra labor and materials including the pump or is this just a nice convenience?
