This is actually an important topic for me. I am implementing a sharding distribution based on consistent hashing using MurmurHash3 as hash function. I am taking the first 4-bytes of the hash function output and using that. I checked and MurmurHash3 mixes the first and last 8 bytes of hash output as a last step, but I am not sure how much differentiation there is in the first 4-bytes. I guess it is something I should check. |
