Grafite: Taming Adversarial Queries with Optimal Range Filters

Summary: Grafite provides a range filter with optimal adversarial guarantees: with B bits per key, query time O(1) and FPR ≤ l/2^(B-2). It outperforms existing range filters across datasets, workloads, and correlated queries, and also introduces a simple heuristic whose uncorrelated performance approaches the best.
