Presently, this section lists a couple of parallelized parts of pg_upgrade and suggests a starting point for setting the --jobs option. The list of parallelized tasks is not particularly actionable, and the phrasing for the --jobs recommendation is confusing to some readers. This commit attempts to improve this section by eliminating the list of parallelized tasks and instead highlighting that --jobs is most useful for clusters with multiple databases or tablespaces. Additionally, the recommendation for setting --jobs is simplified to suggest starting with the number of CPU cores.
