BenchmarkTools v1.1 provides fancy histogram printing by default using @benchmark (thanks to BenchmarkTools#217 by @tecosaur), so BenchmarkHistograms is not needed anymore and will probably not get any more development or releases. Thanks for the interest and Pkg.update("BenchmarkTools")!

Edit: I realised some people credit me with helping with the upstream BenchmarkTools functionality— that was actually an entirely unrelated effort! I think it looks great though and am happy to retire BenchmarkHistograms (but I can’t claim any credit for it).
