A General-Purpose Counting Filter: Making Every Bit Count

Summary: Counting Quotient Filter (CQF): a general AMQ with counting, deletions, resizing, merging, and high-concurrency, strong locality. Outperforms Bloom/quotient/cuckoo; fast counting to 95% load via metadata reorg into rank–select; Haswell tricks boost speed. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
