Well, we could just throw a "Postgres 9.5 is faster" release note item
in there and call it a day. ;-)
Nah! Just say it is Much Shinier, I'll buy it.
Unfortunately, we have to have much more professional sounding reasons
to upgrade, to tell our managers - so I guess you DO need more details...

(I realize now that compiling the release notes must be a somewhat
thankless task, so let me just say that I do appreciate the work
you've put into this very much and the comments above shouldn't be
understood to take anything away from that. The fact that we don't
agree on what the criteria ought to be does not mean that I don't
appreciate you doing the work.)
Considering the number of almost-arbitrary decisions I have to make to
write the major release notes, I am surprised at how few complaints I
get. Of course, I have been clearly told by core that no one else wants
this job.
All joking aside, I appreciate your efforts. I read the release notes,
even though currently I don't have an immediate need to use PostgreSQL.
Cheers,
Gavin
