> The current implementation of Flajolet-Martin estimator to estimate the
> number of distinct values doesn't use hash functions that are pairwise
> independent. This is problematic because the input values don't distribute
> uniformly. When run on large TPC-H data sets, this leads to a huge
> discrepancy for primary key columns. Primary key columns are typically a
> monotonically increasing sequence.
