  1. Count individual SQL commands in pg_restore's --transaction-size mode.

  2. Reduce number of commands dumpTableSchema emits for binary upgrade.

  3. Invent --transaction-size option for pg_restore.

  4. Rearrange pg_dump's handling of large objects for better efficiency.

  5. Add temporal PRIMARY KEY and UNIQUE constraints

  6. Fix typo and case in messages
