%/usr/local/pgsql/bin/pg_dump -D itt_user > itt_user.dump
Backend sent D message without prior T

and then it hangs.

Then i've tried it with -d option:

%/usr/local/pgsql/bin/pg_dump -d itt_user > itt_user.dump
Killed

I didn't killed pg_dump, so i think it was killed by system after
pg_dump grows out of some system limit. Size of itt_user.dump is
something about 2Mb (1974272), last strings in that file are:

INSERT INTO "ip_log" VALUES ('1.1.1.1','user1',300000);
INSERT INTO "ip_log" VALUES ('1.1.1.2','user2',500000);
INSERT INTO "ip_log" VALUES

I crossed my fingers for those dumps i did previously to work.
