Hi,

I have a lot of remote servers, and some of them have MySQL running.
The current backup principle just takes the /var/lib, including MySQL 
tables. Not really cool, I know.

So I like to change to dumping MySQL with mysqldump. Much cooler, but 
how to store those dumps? Should I store them compressed (gzip) or not? 
I do use compression in BackupPC through ssh (-C option).

My main concern is bandwidth usage, not local filesystem space. So which 
option uses the least bandwidth?

Tnx.
