When we do \l+ , it is different than source, when we load backup from target server.

If you're talking about space on drive then you can expect the new one to be smaller generally as it has been straight efficient writes rather than a bunch of updates and deletes which create "holes" in the physical file space.

It helps if you are more detailed as to what you've observed if you want a more specific answer.

I have restored the database from backup dump but the size of source and target databases are different. What can be the reason for this ?
