How do you do dump? With compressness?
I used "pg_dump -o dbname"
Do you have a lot of dead tuples/index entries?
How can I check this and remove them?

Dear all,
I have a postgresql database.
"du -ks /var/lib/pgsql/data" gives me the following disk usage 45592808 /var/lib/pgsql/data (about 44G)
But after I did a pg_dump, the dump file only has the size of 5.9 G.
Thank you for your kind reply and comments.
