Maybe, if the source is on a different set of drives, to reduce
contention for storage and head movement. Either way it is down to
just a straight file copy, so it is the speed of your disk system
that is the limiting factor, not anything within PostgreSQL.

The more sure way of speeding it up is to add more spindles to your
drive array and make sure you are using a good RAID controller with
battery-backed cache.
