Обсуждение: Speccing a remote backup server

Hi,

v9.6 backing up v8.4

Where does the gzip run (where the database lives, or the remote server 
where the pg_dump runs from)?  I ask this because I need to know how beefy 
to make the backup server.  (It'll just store backups for a version upgrade.)

pg_dump is a client to the server, so wherever pg_dump runs.
