Thanks for looking at it!

Hm, I'd have hoped for a bit more runtime improvement. But perhaps
not --- most of the win we saw upthread was from parallelism, and
I don't think you'd get any parallelism in a pg_upgrade with all
the data in one database. (Perhaps there is more to do there later,
but I'm still not clear on how this should interact with the existing
cross-DB parallelism; so I'm content to leave that question for
another patch.)
