An implementation of the T1HA (Fast Positive Hash) hash function.

• Intended for 64-bit little-endian platforms, predominantly for Elbrus and x86_64, but portable and without penalties it can run on any 64-bit CPU.
• In most cases up to 15% faster than StadtX hash, xxHash, mum-hash, metro-hash, etc. and all others portable hash-functions (which do not use specific hardware tricks).
• Provides a set of terraced hash functions.
• Currently not suitable for cryptography.
• Licensed under zlib License.

To include this crate in your program, add the following to your Cargo.toml:

[dependencies]
t1ha = "0.1"

The T1haHashMap type alias is the easiest way to use the standard library’s HashMap with t1ha.

use t1ha::T1haHashMap;

let mut map = T1haHashMap::default();
map.insert(1, "one");
map.insert(2, "two");

map = T1haHashMap::with_capacity_and_hasher(10, Default::default());
map.insert(1, "one");
map.insert(2, "two");

Note: the standard library’s HashMap::new and HashMap::with_capacity are only implemented for the RandomState hasher, so using Default to get the hasher is the next best option.

Similarly, T1haHashSet is a type alias for the standard library’s HashSet with `t1ha.

use t1ha::T1haHashSet;

let mut set = T1haHashSet::default();
set.insert(1);
set.insert(2);

set = T1haHashSet::with_capacity_and_hasher(10, Default::default());
set.insert(1);
set.insert(2);

t1ha can use AES, AVX or AVX2 instructions as hardware acceleration.

You could choose the right implementation base on your target_cpu.

$ RUSTFLAGS="-C target-cpu=native" cargo build

rust-t1ha provide a rough performance comparison to other Rust implemenation of non-cryptographic hash functions, you can run the benchmark base on your envrionment and usage scenario.

$ RUSTFLAGS="-C target-cpu=native" cargo bench

rust-t1ha major focus Rust implementation, if you intent to use the origin native t1ha library, please check rust-fasthash project and it's benchmark, which provides a suite of non-cryptographic hash functions from SMHasher.
