The performance of
std::unordered_map
is widely known to be sub-optimal due to the requirement for iterator and reference stability. This precludesAn up-to-date benchmark can be found here:
https://jacksonallan.github.io/c_cpp_hash_tables_benchmark, which shows that
boost::unordered_flat_map
performs extremely well for inserts and lookups, which is all we do. The lack of iteration speed, the erasure residual performance impact, and the minimum capacity of 30 all have no affect on us.The
boost::unordered_flat_map
implementation has been taken from https://github.com/MikePopoloski/boost_unordered.
