[TEST REPORT]
[Release]: 9.0Beta4
[Test Type]: Feature test
[Test]: pg_upgrade
[Platform]: Ubuntu 10.04 64bit
[Parameters]: Default
[Failure]: No
[Results]: pg_upgrade successful

I run the test on the 6 GB cluster consisting of 6 databases.
The 'old style' test (pg_dumpall / pg_restore) took around 26 minutes.
Doing `pg_dump -Fc f` for each database, then recreating databases and
users on new (9.0b4) cluster, and then pg_restoring databases took 15
minutes. (Too bad one can't pg_dumpall -Fc).

Using pg_upgrade the migration took 5 minutes, including 'vacuumdb -aZ'.
Great tool!

Mike
