Algorithm No One Knows About (2016)
The number of values you've seen could be "only" an exabyte, which is a problem.

You're storing the number of values you've seen:
So far, I've seen 172 values.
You're not storing the values themselves. If the number of values you've processed is too large to fit in memory... you probably had to spend a long, long time processing those values. It's not a relevant objection.
