I think the relation extension improvements ought to be mentioned here as

It was split over quite a few commits, the one improving COPY most
significantly is

     hio: Use ExtendBufferedRelBy() to extend tables more efficiently

Relevant thread:

It's in the release notes as:
   Allow more efficient addition of heap and index pages (Andres Freund)

Thanks,

Jonathan
