A computer implemented method for managing datasets for a histogram. The method uses a number of processor units to determine a first span for first bins containing first datapoints in a first dataset in the datasets. The first span is determined based a distribution of the first datapoints in the first dataset and a desired number of bins. The number of processor units adjusts a second span for second bins containing second datapoints in a second dataset in the datasets to form an adjusted span that matches the first span for the first bins. The number of processor units merges the first datapoints in the first bins having the first span with the second datapoints in the second bins having the adjusted span to form a merged dataset for the histogram.
