It's pretty hard to say without knowing a lot more info about your system
than you provided. One thing that would shed some light is if you spent
some time finding out where the time is going --- is the system
constantly I/O busy, or is it CPU-bound, and if so in which process,
pg_dump or the connected backend?
Also, how many large objects is that? (If you don't know already,
"select count(*) from pg_largeobject_metadata" would tell you.)
