error_rate = (buckets * hash_functions)/2^fingerprint_size = (buckets*2)/256
```

When bucket size of 1 is used the fill rate is 55% and false positive error rate is 2/256 ≈ 0.78% **which is the minimal false positive rate you can achieve**. Larger buckets increase the error rate linearly but improve the fill rate of the filter. For example, a bucket size of 3 yields a 2.34% error rate and 80% fill rate. Bucket size of 4 - a 3.12% error rate and a 95% fill rate.
