Should work perfectly for backing up your DB for safety, or for import using the bigdumpscript and so forth...

For me, defaults work fine, just make sure 'Enclose export in a transaction' is checked, and that "gzipped"-style compression is selected

If you plan to wipe everything you have, you may as well check the Add DROP TABLE checkbox, but only if you want a clean insert..
