+> It is very common to use `HLLSketchBuild` in combination with [rollup](../../ingestion/index.html#rollup) to create a [metric](../../ingestion/index.html#metricsspec) on high-cardinality columns. In this example, a metric called `userid_hll` is included in the `metricsSpec`. This will perform a HLL sketch on the `userid` field at ingestion time, allowing for highly-performant approximate `COUNT DISTINCT` query operations _and_ improving roll-up ratios when `userid` is then left out of the `dimensionsSpec`.
