psql was definitely using up the most memory--but like I said, the
total memory usage on the server was ~10 GB. There was approximately
54 GB free the entire time.
A few options:
* I can put the DB on my server and send you an HTTP URL
* You can send me an SSH public key and do rsync or sftp
* I can stick it in a folder and send you a bitsync key
I have no preference. The DB probably doesn't contain anything
private, but it could contain a few dev passwords. Quite a few of
them have been changed since I decided to have an impromptu test of my
backups. ;)
