https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=3D248123 Bug ID: 248123 Summary: textproc/edcount: New port Product: Ports & Packages Version: Latest Hardware: Any OS: Any Status: New Severity: Affects Only Me Priority: --- Component: Individual Port(s) Assignee: ports-bugs@FreeBSD.org Reporter: marcel@herrbischoff.com Created attachment 216601 --> https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/attachment.cgi?id=3D216601&action= =3Dedit Patch Estimate distinct count of values from standard input. Provides a very fast= way to perform unique count estimates on the command line. The edcount program implements HyperLogLog, with some minor modifications, = as detailed by by Flajolet et. al. in the paper "HyperLogLog: the analysis of a near-optimal cardinality estimation algorithm". Additionally, the memory footprint of the program is constant, at a few megabytes. This memory use is constant regardless of the number of records counted, and does not degrade in accuracy. NOTE: this is my first attempt at a new port from scratch, please be kind. --=20 You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.=
