Not that I am aware of.

If you describe your use-case then meaningful suggestions could be offered.


We have a lot of code that tests interaction with a PgSQL cluster on the same server that has a live production cluster. To keep the testing environment separate from production, we create a PgSQL cluster in a temp directory then run tests against that.

This, as you can imagine, is pretty expensive to set up each time … initdb is not fast! It would be nice if we could just create a single test PgSQL cluster then wipe it clean at the end of each test.
