Agree. I was trying to get rid of this by splitting each round to 3: - gc(),
warm(), work() - when work() and warm() are the same, just that warm()'s stats
are disregarded. Still switching the order of "by match" and "by bits" yield
different results.
Sometimes we would like not to disregard GC - in particular if one approach is
creating more (or more complex) garbage than another approach.
Perhaps we should look at two measures: best & avg/sum (2nd ignoring first run,
for hotspot).

> It would be useful if the method =Filter.bits()= returned an abstract
> interface, instead of =java.util.BitSet=.
> Use case: there is a very large index, and, depending on the user's
> privileges, only a small portion of the index is actually visible.
> Sparsely populated =java.util.BitSet=s are not efficient and waste lots of
> memory. It would be desirable to have an alternative BitSet implementation
> with smaller memory footprint.
> Though it _is_ possibly to derive classes from =java.util.BitSet=, it was
> obviously not designed for that purpose.
> That's why I propose to use an interface instead. The default implementation
> could still delegate to =java.util.BitSet=.
