Increase checkpoint_segments (for example to 64) and set wal_buffers to 16MB. 8.4 introduced parallel restore (pg_restore option -j <num jobs>). Maybe you can't do anything mentioned above because it is not possible to restart server (you can change maintenance_work_mem via PGOPTIONS) or there is a single table to import (-j is not aplicable) -- try to drop indexes and recreate them after import. -- Ondrej Ivanic (ondrej.ivanic@xxxxxxxxx) -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
