Hello, after updating my server to Postgres 9.5 (or 9.6) I tried to import PG 9.4 dumps and/or to restore 9.5/9.6 dumps:
pg_dump testdb > db.sql psql -d testdb -f db.sql Restoring these dumps in PG 9.4 takes less than 20 minutes, restoring them in PG 9.5/9.5 takes several hours on the same system (even if I make a PG 9.5/9.6 dumps and try to restore this one)! I also tried to restore dumps with the original PG 9.4/9.5.9.6 configuration as well as with different options like increasing max_wal_size in 9.5/9.6. e.g. Do I miss a specific option in 9.5/9.6 which may be different to 9.4? If I turn off autovacuum (9.5/9.6) it's faster - but not as fast as with PG 9.4. Example Log 9.5/9.6: LOG: duration: 278349.128 ms statement: COPY test (id, ...) LOG: duration: 646487.952 ms statement: ALTER TABLE ONLY test ... The same with creating index... It takes hours with PG 9.5./9.6! Thanks, Hans <http://www.maps-for-free.com/>
