Does recovery of pg_dump and the transaction logs work with a backup and
then doing a rollforward on the transaction logs?  What would be the
procedure?  It doesn't seem as though there is any real connection between a
pg_dump and the backup of transaction logs.

Also, does a pg_dump guarantee a consistent view of all of the tables in a
database at a given snapshot in time, or does it simply dump the contents of
each table as they are encountered while dumping?

And what format of pg_dump is required to also dump the large objects so
that they can be automatically loaded back on failure recovery (or just
copying the database to another computer)?
