Yerui Sun commented on KYLIN-1379:
----------------------------------

Discussed with [~liyang.g...@gmail.com], some key points about next version:
* The RoaringBitmap serialized bytes size is 2*N(cardinality) approximately, 
due to memory issue, we'll limit the precision(cardinality) of bitmap measure, 
up to 10M(10,000,000). The column which over the cardinality **will cause cube 
building failed**.
* Measure bitmap will encode the column values with dict, to support all data 
type, including Long, String, Date and etc.

I'll work on this later and post patch for 2.x-staging branch.

> More stable precise count distinct implements after KYLIN-1186

> After KYLIN-1186, we've gained the ability to count distinct Int type columns 
> precisely.
> However, the implements of KYLIN-1186 is not stable, especially in 
> 2.x-staging branch.
> The reason is that the measure's maxlength is used to allocate memory in 2.x 
> version, and the BitmapMeasure is hardcoded to 8MB in KYLIN-1186, causing OOM 
> when cube building.
> To resolve this problem, we have introduce precision on the bitmap measure, 
> such as bitmap(100), bitmap(10000), bitmap(1000000), meaning the measure 
> could accept 100/10000/1M cardinality at most. This solution should be fine, 
> considering the reality, if the count value over 1000000, the hyperloglog 
> measure which produce approx. result should be acceptable.
