It backuped 2 500 courses in 5h (more details of my configuration in this discussion), generating 50 GB of .mbz files.
In my case, sessions are on disk, not in DB !
I've also optimised MariaDB's configuration (using MySql Tuner and tuning-primer tools to help me), and really think it could help you to do that.
Hi Marius,
First, some information about my server : a VM with 16 CPU and 48 GB RAM, using CentOS 7.5, with PHP 7.0.32 and MariaDB 5.5.60.
Last week, we had 7 000 different users connected per day.
I use Moodle 3.5.2 and the /admin/cli/automated_backups.php script, using a dedicated folder. It's launched at full night, when (very) less people are connected, and avoid other big processes at the same time : no Moodle statistics, and no server backups !It backuped 2 500 courses in 5h (more details of my configuration in this discussion), generating 50 GB of .mbz files.
