is there any reason to use SuperFastHash in druntime? (exceptspeed)

[Daniel Kozák via Digitalmars-d]

A little bit faster than murnurhash3 in my scenerio. But I prefer farmhash. http://code.google.com/p/farmhash/

We discussed most part of this already.

And we're already using MurmurHash3 for the new CTFEable hash 
function.

importance.

It's called fast hash, but how fast is it?
