On: Open-sourcing F14 for memory-efficient hash tables

[mlindner]

Can this easily be ported to Rust?

[pcwalton → mlindner]

Rust's standard hash table has recently been replaced with Hashbrown, which is a port of Google's SwissTable, which is a close relative of this hash table. So it's basically already done. :)

[Dowwie → mlindner]

Fb probably open sourced the work after the engineers realized that hashbrown is superior to it. Just a hunch. Need to see benchmarks..

[Shish2k → Dowwie]

F14 has been open source for over a year already...
