I can't account for how I did it, but I can only assume I didn't export my ports in the tests properly. I ran everything again and there's a marked difference between 9.3 and 9.4. The parallel copy times still inflate, but only from 1.4s to 2.5s at 4 procs. Though it gets a bit dicey after that. I tried to see what the growth curve looks like, but the numbers are wildly inconsistent after 4 procs. Even at 6, it went anywhere from 4.3 to 7s for each COPY, even while no checkpoint is running. COPY time definitely increases with each additional process though, which is likely expected. I was hoping the lock improvements in 9.5 would improve this area too, but performance is the same on 9.5 (yes I'm sure this time). I can still send the perfs, but I suspect they're not exceptionally useful anymore. :) As a side note, using INSERT instead scales almost exactly linearly. This would be useful, except that INSERT is already at least a magnitude slower than COPY.
