> The statement about 1/(2**32) event as sufficiently frequent does not sound to me According to the [birthday problem](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Birthday_problem#Square_approximation), the collision would happen with probability of 50% at `2**16` elements, which is not that uncommon. Then, if something goes wrong, it would be extremely hard to identify: JMeter would skip certain samplers or configuration elements, so it is more like a silent data corruption rather than "crash once every `2**32` JMeter executions". -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
