It says the following:
* When fixture files are processed, the data is saved to the database as
is. Model defined save methods and pre_save signals are not called.
However, it does not make specific mention about other signals. Recommend
making the text explicit so that readers understand that other signals not
mentioned here will be called (post_save et al).
Example:
Let's say you're testing on a local server and you have use post_save to
send emails or other notifications. loaddata will resend all emails on
load. This is behaviour that, in a test environment, one may wish to
avoid.
