Good questions.

We do not do connection pooling yet. currently it's a fresh connection per query (which adds a bit of latency). We're intending to add basic connection pooling shortly after launch. That said, if you put it in-front of pgbouncer, that would work well.

PostGIS and other extensions are on the radar, but currently are not supported. The proxy works with the extensions, but can't mask the data yet. If we get requests for specific extensions to be fully supported, we'll implement (same with extra masking data types). I look forward to the GIS data implementation, as I've met one of the postGIS contributors and have discussed several of those masking complexities.
