/*
* This class implements a counting Bloom filter as described at
* <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bloom_filter#Counting_filters>, with
* 8-bit counters. This allows quick probabilistic answers to the
* question "is object X in set Y?" where the contents of Y might not
* be time-invariant. The probabilistic nature of the test means that
* sometimes the answer will be "yes" when it should be "no". If the
* answer is "no", then X is guaranteed not to be in Y.
*
* The filter is parametrized on KeySize, which is the size of the key
* generated by each of hash functions used by the filter, in bits,
* and the type of object T being added and removed. T must implement
* a |uint32_t hash() const| method which returns a uint32_t hash key
* that will be used to generate the two separate hash functions for
* the Bloom filter. This hash key MUST be well-distributed for good
* results! KeySize is not allowed to be larger than 16.
*
* The filter uses exactly 2**KeySize bytes of memory. From now on we
* will refer to the memory used by the filter as M.
*
* The expected rate of incorrect "yes" answers depends on M and on
* the number N of objects in set Y. As long as N is small compared
* to M, the rate of such answers is expected to be approximately
* 4*(N/M)**2 for this filter. In practice, if Y has a few hundred
* elements then using a KeySize of 12 gives a reasonably low
* incorrect answer rate. A KeySize of 12 has the additional benefit
* of using exactly one page for the filter in typical hardware
* configurations.

/*
* A counting Bloom filter with 8-bit counters. For now we assume
* that having two hash functions is enough, but we may revisit that
* decision later.
*
* The filter uses an array with 2**KeySize entries.
*
* Assuming a well-distributed hash function, a Bloom filter with
* array size M containing N elements and
* using k hash function has expected false positive rate exactly
*
* $ (1 - (1 - 1/M)^{kN})^k $
*
* because each array slot has a
*
* $ (1 - 1/M)^{kN} $
*
* chance of being 0, and the expected false positive rate is the
* probability that all of the k hash functions will hit a nonzero
* slot.
*
* For reasonable assumptions (M large, kN large, which should both
* hold if we're worried about false positives) about M and kN this
* becomes approximately
*
* $$ (1 - \exp(-kN/M))^k $$
*
* For our special case of k == 2, that's $(1 - \exp(-2N/M))^2$,
* or in other words
*
* $$ N/M = -0.5 * \ln(1 - \sqrt(r)) $$
*
* where r is the false positive rate. This can be used to compute
* the desired KeySize for a given load N and false positive rate r.
*
* If N/M is assumed small, then the false positive rate can
* further be approximated as 4*N^2/M^2. So increasing KeySize by
* 1, which doubles M, reduces the false positive rate by about a
* factor of 4, and a false positive rate of 1% corresponds to
* about M/N == 20.
*
* What this means in practice is that for a few hundred keys using a
* KeySize of 12 gives false positive rates on the order of 0.25-4%.
*
* Similarly, using a KeySize of 10 would lead to a 4% false
* positive rate for N == 100 and to quite bad false positive
* rates for larger N.
