Nietzsche apparently claimed that Heraclitus was his favourite ancient Greek philosopher. What do their philosophies have in common?

The obvious ones are that they both find a place for strife and becoming in their philosophy, against any kind of unchanging or Platonic world that Heraclitus would have found in the Eleatics and Nietzsche in some of his Christian contemporaries (he might allege all of them).  There are also some very significant differences between the two, Heraclitus leaves a large role for *logos*, which Nietzsche would have strongly disputed.
