The "recommended" way would be to use ConfigurationOfGarageGlorp and use Garage's PostgreSQL driver (which is a fork from the PostgresV2 one).
However I couldn't tell whether there is a difference (both in performance and/or features) between them because the codebase moves a glaciar speed; I'm aware of some users that prefer to stick with the old driver (pgV2) instead of the Garage alternative (which isn't much maintained either), since both preserve the API and different Glorp drivers (adapters) corrects any difference. In the booklets Stef published days ago there is a link to the one of Glorp I wrote, there is a snippet of the "recommended" way to load Glorp using the Garage configurations. Which one you choose is up to you. Regards! Esteban A.
