Hey Otis.  If you look at these graphs, can you say anything about
size/accuracy trade-offs of QD relative to what I am building?

These graphs tell you what size digest you need for different levels of
accuracy.  If you only need 99%-ile and higher, you can use a 500Byte
digest and get 0.5% accuracy or better.  With 2K, you get 1% for the
median, 0.5% for the 90-th %-ile and ~0.1% accuracy for 99% and higher.
