Hi,if you want to copy from one server to another can't you just use "mysqldump? This is then restored via the "mysql" command using a pipe or STDIN redirection. If you can shutdown the database for the duration of the copy then you can do cold backup of all data files. Both options will be as fast as your database is small ;)
