Extremely simple - compiles down to ~52 instructions on x86.

Excellent distribution - Passes chi-squared tests for practically all keysets & bucket sizes.

Excellent avalanche behavior - Maximum bias is under 0.5%.

Excellent collision resistance - Passes Bob Jenkin's frog.c torture-test. No collisions possible for 4-byte keys, no small (1- to 7-bit) differentials.

Excellent performance - measured on an Intel Core 2 Duo @ 2.4 ghz

Example

use std::hash::{Hash, Hasher};

use fasthash::{murmur, MurmurHasher};

fn hash<T: Hash>(t: &T) -> u64 {
    let mut s: MurmurHasher = Default::default();
    t.hash(&mut s);
    s.finish()
}

let h = murmur::hash32(b"hello world\xff");

assert_eq!(h, hash(&"hello world") as u32);

Structs

Murmur	MurmurHash 32-bit hash functions
MurmurAligned	MurmurHash 32-bit aligned hash functions
MurmurAlignedHasher	An implementation of std::hash::Hasher.
MurmurHasher	An implementation of std::hash::Hasher.

Functions

hash32	MurmurHash 32-bit hash functions for a byte array.
hash32_aligned	MurmurHash 32-bit aligned hash functions for a byte array.
hash32_aligned_with_seed	MurmurHash 32-bit aligned hash function for a byte array. For convenience, a 32-bit seed is also hashed into the result.
hash32_with_seed	MurmurHash 32-bit hash function for a byte array. For convenience, a 32-bit seed is also hashed into the result.
