I'm using a similar method for my own project. But I dump the data with
the -d or -D option. This ist not as fast as the raw copy but more flexible.
Maybe you should give it a try.
If you rename some colums of your table, you should use -d (propert INSERT
commands instead of COPY).
If you reorder the colums of your tables you should use -D (propert INSERT
with explicit Attributenames).
You cannot do both (rename and reorder columns)!
