 ## Monitoring
 
-Monitor performance with [pg_stat_statements](https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/pgstatstatements.html) (be sure to add it to `shared_preload_libraries`).
-
-```sql
-CREATE EXTENSION pg_stat_statements;
-```
-
-Get the most time-consuming queries with:
-
-```sql
-SELECT query, calls, ROUND((total_plan_time + total_exec_time) / calls) AS avg_time_ms,
-    ROUND((total_plan_time + total_exec_time) / 60000) AS total_time_min
-    FROM pg_stat_statements ORDER BY total_plan_time + total_exec_time DESC LIMIT 20;
-```
+Use existing tools like [pg_stat_statements](https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/pgstatstatements.html) or [PgHero](https://github.com/ankane/pghero) to monitor performance.
 
 Monitor recall by comparing results from approximate search with exact search.
