rust-t1ha
An implementation of the T1HA (Fast Positive Hash) hash function.
Briefly, it is a portable 64-bit hash function:
- Intended for 64-bit little-endian platforms, predominantly for Elbrus and x86_64, but portable and without penalties it can run on any 64-bit CPU.
- In most cases up to 15% faster than StadtX hash, xxHash, mum-hash, metro-hash, etc. and all others portable hash-functions (which do not use specific hardware tricks).
- Provides a set of terraced hash functions.
- Currently not suitable for cryptography.

Usage
To include this crate in your program, add the following to your Cargo.toml
:
[dependencies]
t1ha = "0.1"
Using t1ha
in a HashMap
The T1haHashMap
type alias is the easiest way to use the standard library’s HashMap
with t1ha
.
use t1ha::T1haHashMap;
let mut map = T1haHashMap::default();
map.insert(1, "one");
map.insert(2, "two");
map = T1haHashMap::with_capacity_and_hasher(10, Default::default());
map.insert(1, "one");
map.insert(2, "two");
Note: the standard library’s HashMap::new
and HashMap::with_capacity
are only implemented for the RandomState
hasher, so using Default
to get the hasher is the next best option.
Using t1ha
in a HashSet
Similarly, T1haHashSet
is a type alias for the standard library’s HashSet
with `t1ha.
use t1ha::T1haHashSet;
let mut set = T1haHashSet::default();
set.insert(1);
set.insert(2);
set = T1haHashSet::with_capacity_and_hasher(10, Default::default());
set.insert(1);
set.insert(2);
Performance
t1ha
can use AES, AVX or AVX2 instructions as hardware acceleration.
Implementation | Platform/CPU |
---|---|
t1ha0_ia32aes_avx() | x86 with AES-NI and AVX extensions |
t1ha0_ia32aes_avx2() | x86 with AES-NI and AVX2 extensions |
t1ha0_ia32aes_noavx() | x86 with AES-NI without AVX extensions |
t1ha0_32le() | 32-bit little-endian |
t1h0a_32be() | 32-bit big-endian |
t1ha1_le() | 64-bit little-endian |
t1ha1_be() | 64-bit big-endian |
t1ha2_atonce() | 64-bit little-endian |
You could choose the right implementation base on your target_cpu
.
$ RUSTFLAGS="-C target-cpu=native" cargo build
Benchmark
rust-t1ha
provide a rough performance comparison to other Rust
implemenation of non-cryptographic hash functions, you can run the benchmark base on your envrionment and usage scenario.
$ RUSTFLAGS="-C target-cpu=native" cargo bench
Native t1ha
Library
rust-t1ha
major focus Rust
implementation, if you intent to use the origin native t1ha
library, please check rust-fasthash project and it's benchmark, which provides a suite of non-cryptographic hash functions from SMHasher.
