Someone has some kind of specification or description of the pg_dump custom format? What I'm trying to do is an utility to remotelly syncronize postgresql dumps, using lib_rsync to syncronize each table independently and copying blobs only when sizes differ. I've made the same using the Tar format, but I think most of the features and optimizations like paralell-restore are now only available with the custom format. I will do the script in Python, so, I need to know how to parse and write pg_dumps in custom format.
You might find this useful: <https://gist.github.com/1258232> It's a perl script that parses and prints out the header and TOC of a custom format dump.
