Thanks for compiling some numbers.  This is showing a lot of variance.
Expecially, these two lines in table 2 are showing surprising results
for v7:
  direction     format  n_columns     master         v7        v10
       from        csv          1    917.973   1695.401    871.991
       from     binary          1    841.104   1422.012    820.786

I am going to try to plug in some rusage() calls in the backend for
the COPY paths.  I hope that gives more precision about the backend
activity.  I'll post that with more numbers.
