Quick eyeball of the latest two versions shows significant download of

Chef.

All but ~4000 of those hits were by either "Chef Client" or "Chef
Knife", most of which were, unsurprisingly, just 304's ("not modified").

From 100 000 downloads?
This link shows which other POMs are referring to 9.4.1208.jre7: http://mvnrepository.com/artifact/org.postgresql/postgresql/9.4.1208.jre7/usages
Keep in mind that I don't know how reliable is this data, but Clojure and Spring Boot are quite popular projects.

    This doesn't seem to happen with current version 42:

http://mvnrepository.com/artifact/org.postgresql/postgresql/42.0.0.jre7/usages (not used so far)

BTW, description of this version of the driver, according to http://mvnrepository.com/artifact/org.postgresql/postgresql/42.0.0.jre7 is:

"Java JDBC 4.2 (JRE 8+) driver for PostgreSQL database"

    LOL!
