I have a 4GB database which i need to move to another hosting company.
The source and destination databases are mysql so there is no
conversion issue.

My question is has anyone any recomendations on which is the best
method for doing this. I am aware of doing a database dump and then
importing into the new server. But i want to know if there are any
issues with the file size. i.e. will carrying out an import time out
with the file size being so large.

I have also come across mysqlhotcopy, will this do? 

Any thoughts on this will be much appreciated.
