If heroku pg:copy fails after a few 'starting copy' logs on the latest CLI, one reporter resolved it by downgrading the Heroku CLI to 9.5.1. Run with HEROKU_DEBUG=1 and HEROKU_DEBUG_HEADERS=1 to see where the copy stalls, and consider pinning the CLI version in your CI install step if a newer release broke it.
