In order to speed up my build process I've been looking into using the psycopg2 binary package despite the warning on the docs. After reading #543 and #836
I've been running tests using psycopg2-binary and things seem to be working, but I'd like to get some developer commentary. Is the binary package still discouraged for production deployment? If not, is there any difference between the psycopg2-binary package and the psycopg2 package without the --no-binary flag?

People who ran tests showed encouraging results. If for you shaving seconds out of your build process is a valuable result try using the binary packages. I don't feel like endorsing the binary package so far to push it as the default as was done optimistically in previous releases.
As of psycopg 2.8, pip install psycopg2 is equivalent to using --no-binary. The difference is that the -binary package packages its own libraries (libpq, libcrypto...) whereas the package installed from source uses the system libraries.
