Hi,

While de-spooling attributes into my postgres database for a full backup
takes about two hours, I noticed that postgres was able to dump the
entire database and create a brand new one including indexes in just
a couple of minutes. It seems to me there's some room for improving
bacula's de-spooling speed.

Since copying a database involves the use of the COPY command, I
was wondering what it did differently (ie locking the entire table,
transactions, etc.) to allow this speed. Could we use the copy command
when we de-spool the attributes? Could we do the same thing the copy
command it doing for speed?

Cutting my postgres update time to minutes from hours would certainly
make my backups run far smoother.
