I am curious to know if anyone has any viable live backup procedures other
than pg_dump/pg_dumpall when you have a continuously running server with
continuous query activity? The motivation is to find a live alternative
faster than pg_dump, which presently takes about 45 minutes on some of my
larger databases. I assume any kind of file copy backup is not workable
due to the complexities of mvcc, caching, etc.
Thanks,
Ed
