Hi,
I'm currently restoring a fairly large DB from a pg_dump and it's taking
about 12 hours to finish. The main part of this time is spent creating
indexes. Is there anyway I can speed up the restore process, or do i just
have to wait? I'm using postgres 8.1.3 on freebsd and the pg_dump is gzip'd.
I'm restoring with the following command : "zcat <gzip'd db> | psql -U
postgres <destination db>"

Regards,
Ruairi Carroll
