alternative :
t
tar
Output a tar-format archive suitable for input into pg_restore.
The tar format is compatible with the directory format:
extracting a tar-format archive produces a valid
directory-format archive. However, the tar format does not
support compression. Also, when using tar format the relative
order of table data items cannot be changed during restore
example :
pg_dump -U postgres -h faiserver -F t -f aaa.tar -d warehouse_db
Actually, in my experience, compress would finish more quickly due to much smaller disk consumption size under modern cpu model.
