Another painful experience was when I convinced a friend to drop her
friend as a hosting solution, also because you could use phpmysqladmin (or
whatever it's called) without a password (!).
Anyway, uploading a phpbb database to a new host turned out not to be a
piece of cake. I have no idea why uploading a mysql database with 100,000+
records should take a lifetime and more. (The webbased thingies couldn't
handle it, so I connected with the mysql client, hurray for the CLI).
If anyone has tips to speed things up?
i.e mysql -ufoo -p -database bar < dump.sql takes ages and ages, even
locally. I know that the inserts are done one by one (not the smart way),
but why my harddisk is spinning for 20-30 minutes when I do something like
this is beyond me. Can't remember that it was that slow in the past.
