The idea behind this filter can be applied to more than just numbers,
so I'd like to put the stress on its speed or idea used -
FastRangeQuery, TrieRangeQuery, SegmentedRangeQuery (from the fact it
splits input range into variable-precision segments), PrefixRangeQuery
(you can reword the algorithm in terms of prefixes)
