Nope. Even a pg_dump -h prod|psql backup_node resulted with the same
issue

Is the locale the same on each machine/db?

These are generic RPM installations, and locales are the same...

OK - so not fillfactor and not some unicode-related padding. I can't see how a 32 vs 64-bit architecture change could produce anything like a doubling of database size.

Is it that each file is doubled in size, or are some much larger while others are about the same? If the indexes are to blame it's presumably something to do with the order of row access during index creation.
