Don't use pg_restore, do the backups/restorations outside of PostgreSQL: - run on a server with a snapshot-capable volume manager, use that for quick restores - just try using rsync from a backup copy of the base data directory (either of the above require PostgreSQL to not be running during the restorations) -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
