 * Does this plugin do its work well with databases larger than 10 MB? I am currently
   backing up a ~14MB database which is so big mainly because of Slimstat statistics
   which the client wants to migrate to a new server as well. The backing up is 
   really slow. It has been 30 minutes and only 25% has been done. Is this normal?
   Can WordPress DB Backup and or my database handle it?

 * Tried it via PHPMyAdmin now. Plugin was at 30% after an hour. Taking way too 
   long. PMa somehow timed out and showed an error page that export.php could not
   be found!

 * Well I managed to download the database as a bz2 file which was gigantic (23.8
   MB). Unzipped the entire database is 266 MB. So I downloaded all tables minus
   the Slimstat tables now – 1.6 MB as .zip – so I can import properly into the 
   the new database.

 * Also managed to down a table in pieces (row x to row x) using PMA. So now I manage
   to download a large database either split in tables or even as table + large 
   tables in rows using PHPMyAdmin. All good now.
