What is the target=10 duration?  I think 10 is as low as we can

I'm not sure why we're so glibly rejecting Dan's original proposal.
Sure, adjusting pg_upgrade when we whack around pg_statistic is work,
but who ever said that a workable in-place upgrade facility would be
maintenance-free?  We're operating under a number of restrictions
imposed by the need to be pg_upgrade-compatible, and this doesn't
strike me as a particularly severe one by comparison -- we can always
arrange to NOT migrate statistics between incompatible versions; that
doesn't mean that we shouldn't migrate them when they ARE compatible.
Also, unlike the alternatives thus far proposed, Dan's idea actually
fixes the problem.

I agree.

cheers
