damn!!! really? =( That's not good

will have to think about how will perform this....

I think what I would need to use is:

1 - upgrade master server
2 - by performing #1 - the slaves would become unused (streaming
replication wouldn't work)
3 - Setup new slave running Postgres 9.4
4 - dump the db to the new server

Do you guys agree?
