Description

I would like to see the addition of a tablespace parameter added to shp2pgsql.

For loading large tables, this is currently a three stage process.

  • load DDL from shp2pgsql
  • use psql and alter the tablespace of the table
  • load the data from shp2pgsql

Postgres stores relations as individual files. When loading several thousand tables, the underlying OS can become slow when looking up a particular file/table. Having multiple tablespaces solves this problem.
