I've setup a new Ubuntu 16.04 box with PostgreSQL 9.5.5 and I'm restoring a 
fairly large DHIS2 backup but having speed issues.  It's a full pg_dump in 
custom format and about 650Gb compressed (a plain text dump produces a 7Gb 
file).  I made sure inserts were turned off, so that's not the issue, but so 
far it's been running for 33 hours - CPU at 100% - with no end in sight.  This 
is a backup file that took 30 minutes to generate.

If it is running synchronously, I calculated that it's on around 20 million DB 
rows of around 170 million after 33 hours!  Surely that's not normal.
I've tweaked PostgreSQL with the following settings:

maintenance_work_mem=2GB
max_wal_size = 1Gb
checkpoint_timeout = 3600
checkpoint_completion_target = 0.9

Anyway, if anyone has insight or has had a similar experience, or suggestions, 
please let me know!
I'm testing it on another (Windows) instance to see if there's something amiss.

Cheers,
Ed
