Hi Adrian,
Thanks for your suggestions. I will try your modifications and do benchmarking.

Both of which depend on the plpythonu functions running with plpython3u,
in other words that they are Python3 compatible. Have you verified that?

I would suggest working on the schema portion separate from the data:
pg_restore -s -f out_dump_schema.sql dump.pgdump*
Do your search and replace, restore to database and then:
pg_restore -a ... dump.pgdump*
Where -a is data only.
In fact if you have control of the pg_dump break it into two parts:
pg_dump -s ... --schema
pg_dump -a ... --data only

I'm guessing you meant plpythonu above.

Personally I would go with solution 1 with the modifications I suggested.
