HyperLogLog sounds interesting, but looking at the Github page of that extension it mentions that it has been tested with the versions 9.0, 9.1, 9.2, 9.3 and the last commit is 2014. Is it just finished and doesn't need any updates to keep up with newer Postgres versions? Or is it more of an abandonded project?
