It solves the problem with buffers larger than 2^25 bits (32MB),
the histogram (calls) is skewed to the right and the performance
will be very if the percentile 95 is reached at the last bin.
I suffered this issue in our DOTW.com platform. The logs below are tests in one of our servers in production with actual traffic and load (I just changed temporarily the calibrateCallsThreshold to 12000 to get the logs faster).
