I'm a little bit confused on the "sorting perf improvements" bit. Does that mean that if I have a query with a `SORT BY`, it will literally "just be faster"? Surely that sounds too good to be true...?

Basically, yes, it will literally just be faster.

On a sidenote it's amazing to see how much MS is contributing to open source.

To give credit where credit is due this was not just a Microsoft contribution. The four mentioned contributors were all from different companies: Microsoft, Dalibo, Greenplum and EnterpriseDB. Microsoft employs some of the core contributors of PostgreSQL, but many patches come out of cross company collaboration.

Their military contributions are also awe inducing

Thanks for the link!
