The page says :
A key is always stored in the bucket it's hashed to.
What if my keys are always unique?
That has no bearing on the problem. Two of your unique keys
might map to the same bucket.
OK.
Sorry for the bad question : what if i pregenerate every possible
key, and fill the associative array where each such key contains
some invalid number, say -1 ?
Then in process, the parallel code can grab the specific key
locations. Will that also create the same problem ?
