Backup size cron job vs glpi

Why is the backup with a cron job smaller then the backup with glpi interface ?

CronJob Backup:
2011-07-14.glpi.backup.sql      1716 kB       2011-07-14 00:10     Löschen      Wiederherstellen      öffnen/herunterladen
2011-07-13.glpi.backup.sql      1716 kB       2011-07-13 21:28     Löschen      Wiederherstellen      öffnen/herunterladen

Backup with GLPI Inteface
glpi-0.80.1-2011-07-13-21-26.sql      2378 kB       2011-07-13 21:26     Löschen      Wiederherstellen      öffnen/herunterladen

Cron job script:
mysqldump -u $myuser -p$mypass --opt glpidb > /var/www/glpi/files/_dumps/$date.glpi.backup.sql

Re: Backup size cron job vs glpi

Because datas are not exporting using the same syntax.
INSERT maybe done in one line for all or one line per entry for example.

Prefer to you cron jobs to do that.
A clean tool named automysqlbackup is very interesting for that.
