I think as long as we are updating this we might as well add a performant hash
function. I see Murmur2 is 32-bit and has a public domain implementation:
https://code.google.com/p/smhasher/source/browse/trunk/MurmurHash2.cpp
Since Murmur2 hashes in 4-byte blocks I expect it probably would perform
The one-at-the-time version computes on chars, if the performance of the hash
function is a critical element in the equation then you will be better off
avoiding its usage. I would suggest going with Murmur
(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MurmurHash) instead, which is faster and perform
well in r
