Guys, can anybody reply if they drop any postgresql database larger than 1 tb and how long did it take?

A lot has to do with how quickly the underlying file system can delete files.

To be honest, though... does it really matter how long it takes?  (If I were worried about it -- which I might be -- then I'd put a DROP DATABASE script in crontab and run it from there.)
