Luck has nothing to do with anything. You really might want to
post with more details and see whether people can help sort out why
you have seen such slow performance where so many others have not.
I hope it's not just a matter of saying "I have a 1TB database and
upgrade is slow, therefore it is slow because it is 1TB." That
would be roughly the equivalent of saying "I have a blue car and it
is slow, therefore it is slow because it is blue." It just might
be the flat tire that actually matters. If your upgrade is slow
because you have 10 million database objects, that might be a hard
one to overcome, but it might be something with an easy solution in
the pg_upgrade options or server configuration.
