andrewmoir Posted June 5, 2007 Share Posted June 5, 2007 HI All, just a quick question - please note I'm fairly new to MySQL. I am using MySQL Administrator to backup my database (I also backup via .csv export as a backup backup) I have watched the backup files from MySQL Admin grow in size in 6 months from 20 to 30 megabytes. However using PHPmyadmin to look at the database I note that my main table is only 11 megabytes (it has only grown by 4 megabytes in 6 months). Note all other tables are in KB sizes and no tables are linked. Is there a reason for the difference in size?? regards Andy Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/54271-msql-administrator-backup-growth-dwarfs-actual-table-size/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
