I know I'm stuck with the slow rebuild at this point. However, I doubt I am the only person in the world that needs to dump and reload a large database. My thought is this is a weak point for PostgreSQL so it makes sense to consider ways to improve the dump reload process, especially as it's the last-resort upgrade path recommended in the upgrade guide and the general fail-safe route to get out of trouble.
No database does fast single-threaded backups.
