Maybe you don't have shell access to the database server but just trough pgadmin or something like that... in that env the copy of the dumps won't work so you need to make the backup with inserts (by need) and still want some performance I don't see why that would preclude using COPY. But anyway in that case you could still run the restore with -1. ...Robert -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers

I don't really see how it would help in any other cases - sync_commit=off helps when you have many small transactions, which really is the opposite of pg_dump/pg_restore. -- Magnus Hagander Me: http://www.hagander.net/ Work: http://www.redpill-linpro.com/ -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
