Hi,
Alsready tried to use --link and --jobs, but you cannot ommit the
"select lo_unlink ...." for every rows containing datatype text in
your database that the pg_* program creates in the export/dump file.
These select's takes a lot of time, hours ...
The pg_dumpall => size of the dumpfile is much more than the size of
exported database
Kind regards
