  • Support for BIND DNS has been removed from Plesk for Windows due to security and maintenance risks.
    If a Plesk for Windows server is still using BIND, the upgrade to Plesk Obsidian 18.0.70 will be unavailable until the administrator switches the DNS server to Microsoft DNS.

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)
