"Dump Database to Textfile (takes ALOT of time)" crashes

"Dump Database to Textfile (takes ALOT of time)" crashes FPDB.

Note: also, whole database text is exported into memory before being written on disk; this feature could be optimized using streamed I/O operations.

Well, yes, OK. But what do you get at the end if it works properly? What do you do with it?

Just reported to keep trace of it. I think this issue is not urgent.

Also, I guess it dumps into sql text files so that the database could be re-created from sql. I do not know whether it's an import and/or usefull feature.

As a user point of view, I thought that it would export to original HH file format on disk, which would have been interesting but just noticed the crash.
