Vitaliy Fuks (vitaliyfuks@yahoo.com) reports a bug with a severity of 3
The lower the number the more severe it is.
Short Description
pg_dump examines all tables even with -t "table_name" speficied
Long Description
Running pg_dump -t table_name -vv shows pg_dump examining every table in the database. With many tables present (in
hundreds)this can make the process of dumping just one table take a considerable amount of time.
With pg_dump -t specified it should go straight for the requested table and then figure what other dependent objects
needto be examined.
Happens on pg_dump 7.2.3 under Linux (RedHat RPM) and i386 Solaris.
Are there some technical limitations forcing pg_dump to read everything? If not it seems that the logic behind is just
notoptimal.
