Since 2.4.5b1 there are a couple of options for estimates in your dumptype:
* new 'estimate' dumptype option to select estimate type:
CLIENT: estimate by the dumping program.
CALCSIZE: estimate by the calcsize program, a lot faster but less acurate.
SERVER: estimate based on statistic from previous run, take second but
can be wrong on the estimate size.
I use CALCSIZE on my slow clients.
