Abstract
Methods, computing systems and computer program products implement embodiments of the present invention that include partitioning a dataset into a full set of logical data units, and selecting a sample subset of the full set, the sample subset including a random sample of the full set based on a sampling ratio. A set of target hash values are selected from a full range of hash values, and, using a hash function, a respective unit hash value is calculated for each of the logical data units in the sample subset. A histogram is computed that indicates a duplication count of each of the unit hash values that matches a given target hash value, and based on the histogram, a number of distinct logical data units in the full set is estimated.
