Where can I look to see (roughly) how much more RAM/CPU/disk needed when

It's entirely possible you'll need *less*, as you'll be absorbing the
benefit of several years' worth of performance improvements. But this
is such a workload-dependent thing that there's no general answer.
XML stored in blobs (not sure whether text or bytea) and b-tree indexes.
A bit off-topic here, but why upgrade to 9.6 when you can upgrade to 10.0?
Obviously you're not one to upgrade often so shouldn't you take advantage of all of the new features and improvements when "finally" (to use your own word) upgrading?
