Issue Summary
Hello,
I just installed the module as a way to automate the backup of my Drupal website. When I do a manual backup from phpmyadmin, the database size is 43mb. When I use this module, its only 0.78mb. Any ideas why?
Thanks....

I dunno. Open it up and take a look. MySQL dumps are just text files, you should be able to open them up in a text editor and compare them. B&M excludes non-vital info like sessions and cache tables which makes them smaller than a phpMyAdmin export, but that usually doesn't account for this much difference (unless your cache or logs are getting out of hand). It could be a difference in compression too, or maybe the B&M files are corrupted or incomplete. Take a look at the files and report back.
