64 * Histogram represents the distribution of data, it has a list of "bins".
65 * Each bin represents an interval and has a count (frequency) of
66 * number of values fall within its interval.
68 * Histogram's range is determined by the number of bins and the bin width,
69 * There are 1000 bins and all bins have the same width of default 1 millisecond.
70 * When a value above this range is added, Histogram's range is increased by
71 * increasing the bin width (note that number of bins remains always at 1000).
72 * This operation of increasing bin width is little expensive as each bin need
73 * to be visited to update it's count. To reduce frequent change of bin width,
74 * new bin width will be the next nearest power of 2. Example: 2, 4, 8, 16, 32,
75 * 64, 128, 256, 512, 1024, 2048, 5086, ...
77 * So, if the required bin width is 300, then new bin width will be 512 as it is
78 * the next nearest power of 2.
