    Hi David,

    I am guessing you are referring to the copydb command, which got removed with version 4.2. If you are finding dump / restore slow, perhaps take a look at mtransfer, a new experimental tool added to mtools - https://github.com/rueckstiess/mtools You will still need to copy and export/import the data. mtransfer does have its limitations as it was built for some specific use cases, but if you do try it out would appreciate any feedback you might have.

    -Brian
