Greetings Folks, I have a relatively large table (100m rows) that I want to move to a new box with more resources. The table isn't doing anything...i.e its not being updated or read from. Which approach would be faster to move the data over: a). Use pg_fdw and do "create local_table as select * from foreign_table". b). setup logical replication between the two servers.
Or KISS and COPY WITH FORMAT BINARY. -- Angular momentum makes the world go 'round.
