I have been trying to upgrade postgres 9.5 to 9.6 with pg_upgrade

Everything seems to start fine but when pg_upgrade gets to "Copying
user relation files"
It takes ages to complete copying.

This is going to need more information:

1) What is the pg_upgrade command you are using?

2) Where are you upgrading from/to?

3) What OS, version?



ie
Each file like

/var/lib/pgsql/9.5/data/base/24602/25140
is 1G and taking ~5-10 minutes to copyand that directory is 223G of
about 990 files

After a couple of hours running pg_upgrade I had to give up.

looking a iotop I was seeing

99% IO load caused by [md0_raid1]

and only seeing pg_upgrade go to 99% every 3-4 seconds

I had no other processes using io or high cpu.

Has anyone got any pointers of what could be the issue ?

Ps running cp on /var/lib/pgsql/9.5/data/base/24602/25140 to my home
directory is instantaneous

System is Centos 7

Thanks
