Serhiy Storchaka added the comment:

The performance of hash algorithm shouldn't affect general benchmarks since 
hash value is cached inside string object. Almost all dict lookups in critical 
parts are lookups with interned strings. But in corner cases the difference can 
be measurable. We should look not on results of macrobenchmarks, but find worst 
cases.

There is also an alignment issue with the implementation of SipHash-2-4 (and I 
suppose with SipHash-1-3). See issue28055.
