Evaluate percentiles based on multiple rows

I have the data in the following format

score_countscore_value
2350
4652
153
89054

with more than a 1 million score_values, each value having its distinct count. 

 

Given the data is in this format, how can I efficiently compute p95 or p99 of my the `score`. 

I tried unrolling the table to create a single column with the value repeated multiple times, but the query does not complete at all. 

Note that I'm planning to use this in a time chart command as so it has to be efficient to compute this value as well.
