Subject: [ADMIN] Can primary key be dropped and added back in?


I have a huge table to load (30+M rows). 

Dropping indexes before loading will speed up my process, but I am not
sure about the primary key that was created with the table creation. Is
the Postgres primary key treated like an index? If yes, dropping the
primary key might help my loading as well.... I can drop the primary key
by 

alter table tbleName drop constraint pkname_pkey.. it dropped clean this
way.

But I haven't found the command to put the primary key back (all for
testing now)

Is there a command to add the primary key back after loading the data?

Thanks
