What is the best way to backup and restore large objects in the
database? I don't think dump/dumpall can handle large objects or
certain column types like serial. I hope there is a good way to do it
such that if I upgrade to a new version of postgresql, I will be able to
restore everything. I understand that tar.gzing the data directory will
not work if the difference between versions changes too much.
