Abstract

Provided herein is a computer-implemented method. The computer-implemented method includes updating, by a processor, a value of a delta field of an entry of a data structure indexed for the processor. The computer-implemented method also includes comparing, by the processor, a predefined threshold for a global field corresponding to the delta field and the value of the delta field. The computer-implemented method also includes rolling, by the processor, the value of the delta field into the global field when an absolute value of the value of the delta field meets or exceeds the predefined threshold for the global field. Note that the data structure is stored in a first area of a memory in communication with the processor that is separate from a second area of the memory storing the global field.
