Hmmmm ... that likely happens because of this for loop copying a lot of
data:
https://github.com/postgres/postgres/blob/master/src/bin/pg_dump/pg_dump.c#L3258
But I'm having trouble verifying that, because the query fetching the
list of objects is rather expensive with this number of large objects.
How long does it take for you? I wonder if there's a way to make the
query faster.
