Description : distinct values estimator
erlang-hyperloglog is an efficient algorithm for estimating the number of
distinct elements, known as the cardinality, of large data ensembles, which
are referred to here as multisets and are usually massive streams (read-once
sequences).
This problem has received a great deal of attention over the past two decades,
finding an ever growing number of applications in networking and traffic
monitoring, such as the detection of worm propagation, of network attacks
(e.g., by Denial of Service), and of link-based spam on the web.
This library is a dependency for ejabberd 15.03
