Sorry, I meant several GB.  Although that may not be a problem for
PostgreSQL, it is for post-processing the output file with other tools.

I should have mentioned that this is quite a complex view (not a table),
which joins several other views of similar complexity.  I'm not sure
whether indexes are useful/feasible in this case.  I'll investigate.


Yes, indexes can be used to speed up the view as well. Such a view is nothing more than just a query.
