Not yet, I will try it, thank you for a suggestion. But how much is it
'big table' and 'lot of indexes' in numbers approximately?

Also, index updates and constraint checks performance are what I cannot
control during COPY execution, so probably I have not to care too much
about that. But of course, it is interesting, how does COPY perform in
that case.
