Abstract
A system includes a first counter configured to increment or decrement in response to a triggering event. The first counter is sized to overflow. The system also includes a second counter configured to increment or decrement in response to a triggering event. The first counter and the second counter are merged to form a third counter in response to detecting an overflow triggering event for the first counter. A merge bit indicative of whether the first counter and the second counter are merged changes value in response to merging the first counter and the second counter.
