Comment (by karsten):

 Your last patches change things back that I fixed before, e.g., you again
 changed `entrySize` back to `entry_sz` which does not conform with the
 code style in metrics-lib or even Java in general.  Please trim your
 patches to the smallest size conceivable to facilitate the review process.
 And please push your branch to a public Git repository somewhere.
 Otherwise I'm inclined to squash and merge as is and address your concerns
 later or in different tickets.  In that case, if you're uneasy to have
 your name and email address as the author of that squashed Git commit, let
 me know and I'll change the author and credit you in the commit message
 instead.  Thanks.
