Hi,

I recently used a hash function like this as part of a React-style delta calculation engine but for Swift / iOS.

I needed a hash function that was fast but collision-resistant, and I did not need a cryptographic hash, as all data is trusted (and a hash collision would not actually matter that much).

I chose SpookyHash V2 based on the advice of some peers and http://aras-p.info/blog/2016/08/09/More-Hash-Function-Tests/

Hope that helps, Chad
