Only if the million are distinct values. Otherwise it keeps each distinct value + a count.
Ok, that's how I understood it, then (even though I'm not sure that that's the way accumulators are supposed to be used).
I'm glad you like the idea of a wrapper on top of an accu, but I only plan to do the accu. Please give me a bit of time to do a bit of maintenance work, though. I'll keep you updated.
It sounds perfect: thanks! D
