Ah, thanks, that was it, I changed the protocol to 7.4 and now I see
proper server-side prepared statements in pg_stat_activity (for some
reason still none in pg_prepared_statements). And with this I got about
10% speedup for my inserts, but it's still twice as slow as jdbc: 68sec
vs 31sec for jdbc for 75,000 rows insert.

When I turn on logging I see these statements:
...
conn=0x2c9b058650, query='BEGIN'
SSendExecuteRequest: plan_name=_PLAN0x2c9b05fde0 count=0
conn=0x2c9b058650, query='SAVEPOINT _EXEC_SVP_0x2c9b05fde0'
SendExecuteRequest: plan_name=_PLAN0x2c9b05fde0 count=0
...

I am wandering if this SAVEPOINT for each insert (even though it's one
big transaction) is what causing the slowdown.
