Is there a way to take a backup (forum dump) via command line with a script ?

(i'm getting errors due to the large size of forums,
i.e.:
Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 67108864 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 4096 bytes) in /Volumes/DATI/ServicesData/FUDforum/include/theme/default/db.inc on line 110
)

I know of no script to take backups dumps. Our forum is roughly 2gb is size currently. Backup via the gui take 3 tries to get a complete dump. That said I uncheck gzip compression and check skip the search index for my dumps.

I'd love to see a backup and restore option via the command line, maybe someday.
Cheers!
Gary

I have tried, but the backup does not terminate ; it creates a file that goes on growing, up to more than 100gb, but never stops; i have tried to run a consistency check of the forum, but the problem continues ; is there a way to understand what it's douing ?
