Perhaps I should clarify. First, I ran pg_dump to extract schema and data *together*. Then I ran pg_restore to restore the db. It took about 1 hour to create tables and copy the data, then about 40 min to create indexes, then pg_restore spent 4.5 hours checking one (1) FKFKonstraint (80M table with FKFKsgainst 20K table with PKPKs 4.5 hours to check one FKFKonstraint - this is want I meant by bad performance. I'm looking for a way to suspend FKFKhecks since data is coming from pg_dump and, hence, it's clean. Thanks __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Protect your identity with Yahoo!
