Re: mssql database backup & restore

Hi Maryam,
When a database is dumped a set of mysql statements are dumped to a text file.


When you restore this file, each statement has to go through the following process :
1. syntax of sql is checked
2. referential integrity, foreign keys, etc have to verified
3. indexes have to be created and updated
4. each sql statement has to be committed.

Hence a restore is always slower than a backup.

Cheers,

Claude Veigas
