I think we can quickly mention c4ab7da6061 in the COPY paragraph, in some benchmarks it improved perf by close to 2x. Something like this: "has improved performance in PostgreSQL 17 when the source encoding matches the destination encoding *and when sending large rows from server to client*" Also, I think it's a bit weird to put the current COPY paragraph under Developer Experience. I think if you want to keep it there instead of move it to the per section, we should put the line about IGNORE_ERROR first instead of the perf improvements. Now the IGNORE_ERROR addition seems more of an afterthought. s/IGNORE_ERROR/ON_ERROR I think it would be good to clarify if the following applies when upgrading from or to PostgreSQL 17: "Starting with PostgreSQL 17, you no longer need to drop logical replication slots when using pg_upgrade" Finally, I personally would have included a lot more links for the new items in this document. Some that would benefit from being a link imho: - pg_createsubscriber - JSON_TABLE - SQL/JSON constructor - SQL/JSON query functions - ON_ERROR - sslnegotiation - PQchangePassword - pg_maintain
