+/**
+ * A Bloom filter is a space-efficient probabilistic data structure, that
is used to test whether
+ * an element is a member of a set. It returns false when the element is
definitely not in the
+ * set, returns true when the element is probably in the set.
+ *
+ * Internally a Bloom filter is initialized with 2 information: how many
space to use(number of
+ * bits) and how many hash values to calculate for each record. To get as
lower false positive
+ * probability as possible, user should call {@link BloomFilter#create} to
automatically pick a
+ * best combination of these 2 parameters.
+ *
+ * Currently the following data types are supported:
+ * <ul>
+ * <li>{@link Byte}</li>
+ * <li>{@link Short}</li>
+ * <li>{@link Integer}</li>
+ * <li>{@link Long}</li>
+ * <li>{@link String}</li>
+ * </ul>
+ *
+ * The implementation is largely based on the {@code BloomFilter} class
from guava.

Maybe we should have a constant `DEFAULT_EXPECTED_FPP` for this 0.03. I was
pretty confused when finding the magic number 0.03 in the testing code.
