I am trying to backup my MySQL databases but am getting the following error: Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 11581840 bytes exhausted at (null):0 (tried to allocate 4683274 bytes) in /usr/local/www/data-dist/phpMyAdmin-2.5.4/backup/functions.php on line 684 Prior to this I tried to run an update on a database and it also gave me an out of memory error also. My database queries and updates are taking much too long, if they finish at all.
