* cache hit ratio for ... : does it matter?  You don't control that anyway.
* unused index removal : table pg_stat_all_indexes
* duplicate index removal : this query shows all indices, including
columns.  Look for duplicates in table_name+index_columns:
select tbcl.relnamespace::regnamespace::text||'.'||tbcl.relname as table_name
        , ndcl.relname as index_name
        , array_agg(att.attname order by att.attnum) as index_columns
from pg_class ndcl
    inner join pg_index nd
        on (ndcl.oid = nd.indexrelid and ndcl.relkind = 'i')
    inner join pg_class tbcl
        on (nd.indrelid = tbcl.oid and tbcl.relkind = 'r')
    inner join pg_attribute att
        on att.attrelid = nd.indexrelid
where tbcl.relnamespace::regnamespace::text != 'pg_catalog'
group by tbcl.relnamespace::regnamespace::text||'.'||tbcl.relname
        , ndcl.relname
order by 1, 2
;
