Mysql New mysql utility mysqlpump in 5.7.8

[c0dex]

Starting with MySQL 5.7.8, we are shipping a new client utility called mysqlpump that performs logical backups, producing a set of SQL statements that can be run to reproduce the original schema objects and table data. The goal of mysqlpump is to have a modern utility that is extendable and has native support for parallelization. We felt that the best way to achieve this was to write an entirely new tool where we would be free to break compatibility with mysqldump and where we would not be forced to implement some of the legacy functionality that it provides. mysqlpump executes all of the operations related to dumping multiple databases and the objects inside them in parallel in order to drastically reduce the total time needed to perform a logical backup.

На словах - вкусно.
Но вот сноска в конце не впечатляет.

Current Limitations

mysqlpump currently tries to do as much work in parallel as possible and the dump threads lack a synchronization point before they start backing up the data. This makes it currently unsafe as a general purpose backup replacement (i.e. fully replacing mysqldump). We will be adding consistent backup related features and much more in upcoming versions.
