I would do normal pg_dumps and load the separate sections via pg_restore, SQL format is slow
There was a problem hiding this comment.
i.e.
pg_dump ... -Fc mydb.dump
and then
pg_restore ... --section=pre-data mydb.dump
psql ... -c 'SELECT bdr.wait_slot_confirm_lsn(NULL, NULL)'
pg_restore ... --section=data mydb.dump
psql ... -c 'SELECT bdr.wait_slot_confirm_lsn(NULL, NULL)'
pg_restore ... --section=post-data mydb.dump
maybe I'd even put options=-cbdr.ddl_locking=off into connection string (but not sure I want to tell that users as common thing...)
