This seems a lot similar to my Postgres problem on some systems:
- when backing up big files, the transfer rate is maximized (and db work is poor, just one record for each big file)
- when backing up many small files, the transfer rate is reduced by 8-10 times (and db work is rich, one record for each small file)

Maybe you have some similar suggestion to MySql for Postgres?

my-large.cnf or my-huge.cnf -- see which one is of interest, Dirk.
