Autobackup Plugin - Split Tables

Hi,

I have the autobackup plugin working on one of my installations, which is working fine, saving the backup php file to the backups folder, however the file is not getting compressed and therefore not emailed.

It's because the file is too big - the file before compression is about 70MB, and when trying to compress (gzencode) the file, it errors with a memory timeout:

Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 134217728 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 65137092 bytes)

If I set the memory to 600MB (!!!) it does not produce the error, and finishes fine, but the file is still not emailed, so that then may be an issue with email file size attachment.

So, I wanted to try and split the backup file sent by email into parts, by table - there are a few tables which are particularly huge.

i.e. backup tables a - m, compress, email, and backup tables n-z, compress and email.

I can send a single table editing the autobackup file to:

$success = backupDatabase($filename, "table")

but is there a way do multiple tables in one go? Or, skip certain tables?

Thanks in advance
Rob
