xxhash GoDoc Build Status

--

xxhash (Copyright (c) 2012-2014, Yann Collet) is an extremely fast non-cryptographic Hash algorithm, working at speeds close to RAM limits.

Supports both the 32bit and 64bit versions of the the algorithm.

Install

Install the recommended pure-go version (much faster with shorter input):

go get github.com/OneOfOne/xxhash/native

Or to install the CGO wrapper over the original C code (only recommended if hashing huge slices at a time):

go get github.com/OneOfOne/xxhash

Features

  • The native version is optimized and is as you can get in pure Go.
  • The native version falls back to a less optimized version on appengine (it uses unsafe).
  • The native version (on non-appengine builds) by default ignores endianness, if you require endianness safety (aka same hash on big and little endian systems), build with -tags be.
  • Both the native version and the cgo version supports 64bit and 32bit versions of the algorithm.
  • When using the cgo version, it will automaticly fallback to the native version if cgo isn't available.
