27 megabytes of what? Text from mysqldump? Any sort of compression should shrink that fantastically.

Instead of constantly using root to drop entire databases -- might just be the teensiest bit dangerous Smilie -- just list tables and delete them as the same user.
Code:
mysql -u username database -b --skip-column-names <<EOF > /tmp/$$-tables
SHOW TABLES
EOF

while read table
do
        echo "DROP TABLE $table"
done < /tmp/$$-tables | mysql -u username database
rm -f /tmp/$$-tables

And yeah, you can dump as many tables simultaneously as you want.

Code:
mysqldump -u username database table1 table2 table3 ...

GIT-PEEK-REMOTE(1)						    Git Manual							GIT-PEEK-REMOTE(1)

NAME
git-peek-remote - List the references in a remote repository SYNOPSIS
git peek-remote [--upload-pack=<git-upload-pack>] [<host>:]<directory> DESCRIPTION
This command is deprecated; use git ls-remote instead. OPTIONS
--upload-pack=<git-upload-pack> Use this to specify the path to git-upload-pack on the remote side, if it is not found on your $PATH. Some installations of sshd ignores the user's environment setup scripts for login shells (e.g. .bash_profile) and your privately installed git may not be found on the system default $PATH. Another workaround suggested is to set up your $PATH in ".bashrc", but this flag is for people who do not want to pay the overhead for non-interactive shells, but prefer having a lean .bashrc file (they set most of the things up in .bash_profile). <host> A remote host that houses the repository. When this part is specified, git-upload-pack is invoked via ssh. <directory> The repository to sync from. AUTHOR
