Actually I think you should compress these on your server. Ubuntu comes with gzip and sql dumps compress well. Here's an example of me compressing the match_picks_bans dump:
Code:
root@levi-mega:/tmp/pb# ls -lh
total 177M
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 177M Apr 22 23:38 csdb_match_picks_bans.sql
root@levi-mega:/tmp/pb# gzip csdb_match_picks_bans.sql
root@levi-mega:/tmp/pb# ls -lh
total 38M
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 38M Apr 22 23:38 csdb_match_picks_bans.sql.gz
You can see it brings it to about 25% of the size - big bandwidth savings. I think winrar can decompress gzip'd files - it's an open course format.
As for timing - I compressed a 12 gig postgres dump down to 800MB in about 5 minutes the other day, so it should be fine for all of these dumps. Thanks again to you and the OP!
