# Optional Arguments:
#   attributes        - Hashref of attributes to aggregate.  Keys are attribute
#                       names used in the EventAggregator object and values are
#                       attribute names used to get values from events.
#                       Multiple attrib names in the arrayref specify alternate
#                       attrib names in the event.  Example:
#                       Fruit => ['apple', 'orange'].  An attrib called "Fruit"
#                       will be created using the event's "apple" value or,
#                       if that attrib doesn't exist, its "orange" value.
#                       If this option isn't specified, then then all attributes#                       are auto-detected and aggregated.
#   ignore_attributes - Arrayref of auto-detected attributes to ignore. 
#                       This does not apply to the attributes specified
#                       with the optional attributes option above.
#   unroll_limit      - If this many events have been processed and some
#                       handlers haven't been generated yet (due to lack
#                       of sample data), unroll the loop anyway. (default 1000)
#   attrib_limit      - Sanity limit for attribute values.  If the value
#                       exceeds the limit, use the last-seen for this class;
#                       if none, then 0.
#   type_for          - Hashref of attribute=>type pairs.  See $type in
#                       <make_handler()> for the list of types.
#
# Returns:

# Sub: bucket_idx

# 
#   Notice that this sub is not a class method, so either call it
#   from inside this module like bucket_idx() or outside this module
#   like EventAggregator::bucket_idx().
#
#   The bucketed list works this way: each range of values from MIN_BUCK in
#   increments of BUCK_SIZE (that is 5%) we consider a bucket.  We keep NUM_BUCK
#   buckets.  The upper end of the range is more than 1.5e15 so it should be big
#   enough for almost anything.  The buckets are accessed by log base BUCK_SIZE,
#   so floor(log(N)/log(BUCK_SIZE)).  The smallest bucket's index is -284. We
#   shift all values up 284 so we have values from 0 to 999 that can be used as
#   array indexes.  A value that falls into a bucket simply increments the array
#   entry.  We do NOT use POSIX::floor() because it is too expensive.
#
#   This eliminates the need to keep and sort all values to calculate median,
#   standard deviation, 95th percentile, etc.  So memory usage is bounded by
#   the number of distinct aggregated values, not the number of events.
