Description of problem:

Option to specify number of jobs [1] has been added to pg_dump to increase performance, so we could reuse this inside engine-backup.

This bug also requires adding support for 'directory' format.

Comment 2 Yaniv Kaul 2017-07-27 12:20:14 UTC
Is pgpdump today too slow? I doubt we've had anyone complaining about it?

Comment 3 Sandro Bonazzola 2017-07-31 09:59:03 UTC
We have no complains about speed of backups, not sure we should spend time on this.
