Re: backup improvements - Mailing list pgadmin-support

Yes, good idea!

Also, blocking the UI during backups and restores is a pain.  I often setup the backup in pgadmin but then execute it
fromthe command line, so that my pgadmin doesn't block.  (Or else I open a second instance of pgadmin so that I can
continueto work while the backup or restore takes place.)
