LadderFilter: Filtering Infrequent Items with Small Memory and Time Overhead
Summary: Filters infrequent items in data streams with memory-friendly multi-LRU queues and SIMD-based LRU to cut time overhead. Applied to four sketch types, LadderFilter yields up to 60.6× accuracy and 1.37× throughput while keeping memory low; open-source. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
