10:21 Dyrcona Hmm. That's a "large" file: 2.8GB for 473,135 bibs with items as XML. I sometimes think that XML was invented by storage manufacturers so that we would need larger drives. :)
10:21 Bmagic lol, that's funny
10:22 Dyrcona I should timed how long it took to export those records. It finished at 00:15 EDT today. I forget what time I started it yesterday.
10:23 Stompro ZFS compression was developed to fight back for the users.
10:24 Dyrcona ZFS++
10:25 Dyrcona I use ZFS on the PostgreSQL partition of my test servers (forme produciton servers). I have 2 NVMe drives configured in a ZFS array, currently striped, previously mirrored in production.
10:26 Dyrcona btrfs can compress files, too, can't it?
10:27 Stompro I'm using ZFS on our new production DB and app servers, migrating to 3.11.1 on Saturday.  Using raid10 mode.
10:28 Stompro 1.78x compression for the DB, 2.23x for the wal files
10:29 Dyrcona Stompro: Cool. I like that ZFS can just "do the RAID" without hardware or software REAID (/dev/md) being required.
10:29 Dyrcona I don't think I enabled compression. I could check.
10:29 Dyrcona I guess technically ZFS calls it a "pool" not RAID, but it's the same idea depending on how you configure it.
10:30 Dyrcona Also, to answer my previous question: No, btrfs does not do compression. It seems that be antithetical to its aims.
10:31 Dyrcona I keep words.... :)
10:31 Dyrcona ^omitting|dropping....One of them goes in there somewhere. :)
10:34 berick zfs++ for lxd vm's
10:35 Stompro I'm using pgbackrest for PG backups now, pretty neat project.

11:26 berick Stompro: same re: pgbackrest.  i didn't set it up, but it's working well.  made creating clones of prod DB pretty easy.
12:03 jeffdavis is pgbackrest significantly faster than pg_dump/pg_restore?
12:17 berick jeffdavis: i've never done a dump/restore of our prod db.  i only recently started doing the db sync's myself.  previous solution was also related to how we made backups, i think, and i recall it being more cumbersome.
12:17 berick i would expect it  to be faster, since you essentially already have a data dump from the backup + transaction logs (as i understand it)
12:30 JBoyer I'm a big fan of barman for backups and repmgr for replication. Very nice.
