That's pretty bizarre, because one of the standard test procedures we use is to check that the SQL emitted by pg_restore from an -Fc backup is exactly the same as a text-mode dump. I have to think there's something else you did differently. Have you looked into pg_locks to see if there's a lock blocking your query? Have you tried comparing EXPLAIN results to see if the query plan is the same? (If not, maybe you forgot an ANALYZE step?) regards, tom lane -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
