If I’m not wrong, I think this situation has changed with the latest Postgres release:

Interesting! I was not aware of this, thanks for sharing. I'll have to look into it in detail to determine whether it's actually pipelining or multiplexing because pipelining is still problematic, since it's subject to head-of-line blocking (one expensive request blocks everyone from getting their responses until it's completed).
it's not multiplexing afaik. you will still have to process commands in the order they were put on the wire.
