Convergence of optimal stochastic bin packing

Consider independent identically distributed random variables (X_i) valued in 0,1]. Let B(n) be the optimal (minimum) number of unit size bins needed to pack n items of size X₁, X₂,…,X_n. We prove that there exists a numerical constant C such that for t > 0,

$\text{Pr(∣B(n)?E(B(n))∣>t}\text{n}\text{)≤ C exp(? t).}$

The constant C does not depend on the distribution of X.
