Hmm - the table-locking requirement is true enough, but why would pg_loader cause problems after the first few rows?

It runs a stream of COPY statements, so only first would be optimized
with the "empty table optimization".

Ah, if you're allowing multiple commands during the process I can see how it could get fiddly.
