I am sorry for writing this, but this is not an issue.

I just want to say thank you very much for this awesome extension. It is easy to install and easy to use. I wish it supports more index type e.g: gin, gist. But, this works very well and I love it.

Thank you, again.

Thank you so much! I'm glad that you appreciate this project.

About GIN and GiST indexes, the only stoppers (at least that I'm aware of) is the cardinality and size estimation of such indexes. I have some ideas on how to try to get an estimation that's not totally wrong (adding a new option to allow hypopg to sample a few rows on the target table and extrapolate from there). I hope I'll be able to add support for these access methods once the current work in progress feature will be finished.
