It looks like practically all of pg_dump's time is going into deflate(),
ie zlib.  I don't find that terribly surprising in itself, but it offers
no explanation for why you'd see a slowdown --- zlib isn't even our
code, nor has it been under active development for a long time, so
presumably 8.4 and 9.5 would have used the same version.  Perhaps you
were doing the 8.4 dump without compression enabled?
