# Partitioned Filters

The repository contains our implementations of four approximate filters: the Bloom filter [1], the Cuckoo filter [2], the Morton filter [3], and the Xor filter [4]. We used the code in our paper [A four-dimensional Analysis of Partitioned Filters](https://db.in.tum.de/~bandle/papers/vldb21-partitionedFilters.pdf).

In addition to our optimized filter implementations, the repository also contains the code of state-of-the-art competitors we compare to and extensive test cases. We generate the benchmarks using python scripts and included our results on an Intel i9-9900x (Skylake-X) with 64 GiB memory.

## Using the Code

### Prerequisites

- C++20 (we used GCC 10.2)
- CMake version 3.10 & make
- Linux (we used Ubuntu 20.10 with kernel version 5.8)
- Python3 + virtualenv (python is only needed for generating the benchmarks and the plots)

### Tests

```make test``` executes all available test (~400 test cases that test the correctness of our implementation (no false-negatives) and different aspects like multi-threading, partitioning, vectorization, etc)

### Benchmarks

```make benchmark``` generates the benchmark and the user can select the benchmark to execute. The results are written to csv-files in the ```benchmark/paper``` folder. All measurements are repeated five times to get stable results.

Executing all benchmarks takes roughly 1 week and requires 64 GiB memory. Some of the benchmarks do measure only the false-positive rate and the failed builds and, thus, should be executed with all available threads.

The csv includes the following fields:
| Field         | Unit         | Description                                                  |

| LLC-misses    | float        | last-level (L3) cache misses per iteration                   |
| branch-misses | float        | branch misses per iteration                                  |
| cycles        | float        | cycles per iteration                                         |
| instruction   | float        | executed instructions per iteration                          |
| FPR           | float        | false-positive rate of the filter (only available when lookup is benchmarked) |
| failures      | integer      | number of failed builds                                      |
| retries       | integer      | number of retries needed to build the filter                 |
| bits          | float        | number of bits per key allocated to the filter               |
| size          | integer      | size of the filter in bytes                                  |

### Plots

```make plot``` generates all plots used in the paper. The benchmark data is taken from `benchmark/paper`.
