a few seconds to several minutes is not the kind of variance that is
explainable by architecture changes between the versions. something
is amiss. 'maintenance_work_mem' can make a big difference with data
loads due to faster index builds but even that would not account for
the difference.
are you running locally or remotely? if running remotely, you might
be seeing some networking/tcp problems.
can you reduce your problem down to a single copy statement for analysis?
