Mysqldump performance degradition

mavera2

Basic Pleskian
Inside my cronjobs I make a full mysqldump every night.
My database has total 1.5GB data inside 20 tables.
Nearly every table has indexes.

I make backup like this:

mysqldump --user=user--password=pass--default-character-set=utf8 database| gzip > "$mybackupfile"

I make this for 2 months. This process takes nearly 1,5 minutes for 2 months.

Last week my hosting company changed my server. Just after the server change, this process started to long for 5 minutes. I told this to server company and they increased my CPU from 4GHz to 6 GHz so mysqldump process became 3,5 minutes. Then they increased to 12 GHz. But this didn't change the performance.

I checked my shared SSD disk performance with `hdparm`. It was 70 MB/sec. So I complain again. So they changed my hard disk to another one. Hard disk read speed became 170 MB/sec. So mysqldump process became 3 minutes.

But the duration is far from the previous value. What would be the cause for this performance degradion ? How can I isolate the problem ?

(Server is Centos 6.4, 12 GHz CPU, 8 GB RAM)
