[kea-dev] Statistics gathering

One item that I ran across elsewhere that will have an impact on the
implementation of any stats we gather for Kea is what size integers
to use for doing the gathering.  

In ISC DHCP we needed to tweak some code to handle the very large
v6 addresses space.  When we do discuss the stats a bit more for
Kea we probably need to decide how the stats might be used and
therefore how large the variables used for their collection should be.
(For example one might be able to use a uint32 if you are reporting the
number of leases handed out per day, but may need something larger
if you want to show the total number of leases available in v6).
