But the code example shows explicit use of
pgconn.setPrepareThreshold(5);

Should we be asking for volunteers to overhaul the docs? I'm concerned
that some important facts aren't just wrong, they've been wrong for 4+
years. That's a pretty serious situation for customer performance as
well as advocacy.
