[postgis-users] Given up

Hi,

Some time ago I installed PostgreSQL with the DBEntreprise installer, 
but it was coming with the PgAdmin 4,witch I really didn't appreciate 
(mostly because it runs really slowly in comparison with PgAdmin3 on my 
machine ...).
For that reason I came back to PostgreSQL 9.6.
Do you know If it's now possible to have PostgreSQL 10 installed with 
PgAdmin 3 (or if PgAdmin 4 has dealt with his problems of slowness, wich 
many people have noticed) ?

Thanks,
Jean
