Guys, can anybody reply if they drop any postgresql database larger than 1 tb and how long did it take?
Thanks
About 280ms:
andreak@[local]:5432 12.0 andreak=# select pg_size_pretty(pg_database_size('rsm'));
┌────────────────┐
│ pg_size_pretty │
├────────────────┤
│ 26 GB │
└────────────────┘
(1 row)
andreak@[local]:5432 12.0 andreak=# \timing
Timing is on.
andreak@[local]:5432 12.0 andreak=# drop DATABASE rsm;
DROP DATABASE
Time: 280,355 ms
1TB is 38x larger than 26GB.
