You do not need a visa as the 2 terminals are connected airside. I am assuming this is all on one ticket. If it's on 2 tickets, you won't be allowed to board in DUB without a Russian visa.

I'm not sure I'd want to spend THIS long at SVO though.

I've never used it but isn't there an airside hotel? That would be a quick way to burn time after traveling overnight.

No, you don't need a visa. The terminals are in the same building.
