To load 1,5M rows (~230MB of INSERT statements), INSERT statements? You dumped with the -d flag, didn't you? Otherwise you'd have seen COPY statements instead, which are much faster (and of which much fewer are necessary, usually).
No I didn't, actually. :) The data was never in the database in the first place: it was generated from a different source. True, it was generated as a CSV file which I converted into INSERT statements, but conversion between the two is not a problem (given 1.5GB of RAM). t.n.a.
