I freshly installed a Ubuntu 12.04 and installed postgresql 9.1 via apt-get. My dump size is about 40Mo and was made with : >> pg_dump -d mydb -U myuser | gzip > pgdump.zip On the otherside I restore my dump with : >> gunzip -c pgdump.zip | psql mynewdb -U myuser -W Then it takes **hours**. At least 8h, I didn't wait the end. To me, 40Mo dump must be restored in less than 1h. For information, my db is hosting datas from a django application and uses PostGis.
