Hi, pg_dump can be used to dump an entire database, or just a single table. Is there a way to make a consistent dump of more than one table, but less than all of the tables in the database? Doing a bunch of single-table pg_dumps isn't really an option, because some tables may change during the dumps, leading to constraint violations if we try to restore them.
Rationale: We have an application that makes a nightly dump of its database. There's one particular table that tends to be large, but happily it's not critical if it's lost -- no real need to back it up. So we'd like to back up everything except that one large, non-critical table.
