<p>1 revision(s)</p> <p><b>New page</b></p><div>== Comments from John Hamer ==<br /> <br /> * &quot;Chosen because I thought it was adequately large.&quot; is not good enough. You need a better reason that that!<br /> <br /> * buzhash RC 7500/2500: llps_i = 132 &amp;mdash; this number is spectacularly higher than the other llps values you report for buzhash. Didn&#039;t you think that was odd, and worth mentioning?<br /> <br /> * All your llps values for buzhashn are exceedingly high. I rather suspect you have done something wrong. However, I can&#039;t check because you have not shown the code you used.<br /> <br /> * ava_Integer 7500/2500: llps = 5, expecting 10.6686 &amp;mdash; now a value much lower than expected. Again, worth noting.<br /> <br /> * Java_Integer typical 7500/2500: llps = 796, expecting 10.6686 &amp;mdash; wow, Java Integer jumps all over the place.<br /> <br /> * Java_Object 7500/2500: llps = 7500 &amp;mdash; this isn&#039;t hashing: the function is returning the same result every time.<br /> <br /> * Why are there three sets of results for each of these hash functions? There are only two input sources. I&#039;m confused.<br /> <br /> * Theoretical ranking: you ran a number of statistical tests, but only reported Entropy. How come?<br /> <br /> Good to see a summary of the results. However, there were many anomalies that deserved investigating, rather than dismissing with a brief note.<br /> <br /> A fair effort.</div>
