It's unclear to me what this is doing exactly -- is it finding the best ever? If not, why would the best change every time you run this?
Also, does anyone have pointers to a hash function discovery mechanism that discovers a good hash function for integer values within a specific range (i.e I know that my integer values are between, say, 10,000 and 200,000, for example) and I want to hash them into some optimal number of hash buckets?
