Liang Xie created HBASE-9631: -------------------------------- Summary: add murmur3 hash Key: HBASE-9631 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HBASE-9631 Project: HBase Issue Type: New Feature Components: util Affects Versions: 0.98.0 Reporter: Liang Xie Assignee: Liang Xie Attachments: HBase-9631.txt
MurmurHash3 is the successor to MurmurHash2. It comes in 3 variants - a 32-bit version that targets low latency for hash table use and two 128-bit versions for generating unique identifiers for large blocks of data, one each for x86 and x64 platforms. several open source projects have added murmur3 already, like cassandra, mahout, etc. I just port the murmur3 from MAHOUT-862. due to compatibility, let's keep the default Hash algo(murmur2) without changing. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
