Well, you could try numbers in the low thousands, but you'll probably
get only incremental improvement.

COPY needn't involve file I/O. If you are using libpq you can push
anything you want into PQputCopyData. This would involve formatting
the data according to COPY's escaping rules, which are rather different
from straight SQL, but I doubt it'd be a huge amount of code. Seems
worth trying.
