This one is faster and achieves better compression than pglz, but is only available in PostgreSQL starting in version 14 (which isn't a concern for us since we'll be using latest stable to start with.)

EXTENDEDstorage (such asTEXT) so theCOMPRESSIONdirective on the column is unnecessary.We also set the default compression algorithm to
lz4, which is faster and has better compression than the defaultpglz. It was first added in Postgres 14.
