Anyways, the question is if people think this is generally useful. If so

I find this idea very useful yes.

Another idea would be to allow for parallel pg_dump output to somehow be
piped into a parallel pg_restore. I don't know how to solve that at all,
it just sound something worthy of doing too.



That's not going to work, the output from parallel pg_dump is inherently multiple streams. That's why it ONLY supports directory format, and not even custom format on disk, let alone a pipe.



What might make sense is something like pg_dump_restore which would have no intermediate storage at all, just pump the data etc from one source to another in parallel. But I pity the poor guy who has to write it :-)

cheers
