   In some environments the test has an overflow check that is not as expected. 
I haven't figured out why, but I believe this overflow detection code is 
incorrect.

   A counter-example can easily be given
   Assume `sum=1`, `update(std::numeric_limits<int64_t>::max(), 3);`
   `value * repetitions + _stats.getSum()` is overflowed, but is still a 
positive number : 9223372036854775806
   @dongjoon-hyun @wgtmac What do you think? :)
