Right, and I don't see any reason for that to decrease just because the
hashtable gets bigger.
A collision is pretty cheap. If the hit ratio for the hash table grows
as it gets bigger, that would account for what you're seeing perhaps.
It's a matter of hash effectiveness, not collision rate.

Wouldn't 50% full mean approximately a 50% chance of collision with an
