Subject: Re: [ADMIN] pg_dump and pg_restore with multiple streams does Not seem to improve overall times
I don't know about parallel pg_dump as we use -Fc and pg_dump can't do that in parallel (afaik). For dumping I have
wrappedpg_dump in a shell script to dump several databases in parallel.
But for pg_restore -j option does make a big difference, at least when you have a lot of larger tables and indexes.

Combination of -Fc and -j definitely works in pg_dump. And there is nothing in the docs that states otherwise.
