compliments for doing performance improvements!
Are you really sure that psycopg2 should go the road of having own
parsers in addition to libpq-s routines? As much as I am happy about
the robustness when having other libpqs, and about the performance
benefit, as much I fear to have some new areas for possible bugs -
especially security-relevant things like SQL-injections.
