Just speculation, I've not tried this. Perhaps pipe the output of pg_dump through a software that bandwidth-limits the throughput? (I don't know if such a command exists, but it probably could be done in 4 lines of Perl or 30 lines of C if necessary.) Or are there so many buffers involved that this would just cause data to pile up in memory, waiting to be written out? cheers -- vbi -- There’s a big confusion in the terms, as the numbers used in Arabic are the Hindu numbers and the numbers used in Latin languages are the Arabic numbers. -- Lior Kaplan, 1.4.2008
