When dumping tables, mysqldump will take the entire table in memory before actually dumping the content. This can be problematic for large tables. The use of the --quick option will prevent this behaviour.
The --quick options is enabled when using the default --opt option, but when using --single-transaction, it must be enabled manualy. I would be great to make it a configurable option in the same way as --single-transaction is.
