Extremely fast MurmurHash3 implementation with zero heap allocations

This is a fork of the System.Data.HashFunction.MurmurHash.

Differences

  • Faster (zero heap allocations via Spans, reduced class inheritance, bytes to uint conversion optimisations)
  • Only 32-bit output hash value. Maybe 128-bit will be supported in the future. But you can implement it by yourself and send me PR :)

Installation

This project is available as a NuGet package

Example

Some code 1. You can use traditional byte[]

uint hash = MurmurHash3.Hash32(bytes: new byte[]{1,2,3}, seed: 123456U);
Console.WriteLine(hash);

Output 1

3800434721

Some code 2. State-of-the-art Span<byte> and ReadOnlySpan<byte> also supported

ReadOnlySpan<byte> span = ...
uint hash = MurmurHash3.Hash32(bytes: span, seed: 123456U);
