Howdy,
I've had tests with both a normal hashmap (just new HashMap() used) and
a synchronized wrapper (Collections.synchronizedMap(new HashMap()).  I
would expect the normal HashMap to be faster than both the FastHashMap
and the synchronized HashMap.  Is my expectation wrong?

However, here are the results:
[MapTest: FastHashMap: false / Synchronized wrapper: false / Insert
time: 1592 / Read time: 30]
[MapTest: FastHashMap: true / Synchronized wrapper: false / Insert time:
1265 / Read time: 6]
