AIUI he did an RDS upgrade. Surely that's not doing a dump/restore? I
assume you would know better than him or me what it actually does do :-)

Since I am not working at AWS I can't tell for sure. ;)

It used to perform a binary pgupgrade. But that also has issues with xids and freezing. So I would throw a cluster wide vac-freeze in there for good measure, Sir.


Best Regards, Jan
