Dave Brosius updated CASSANDRA-3772:
------------------------------------
Attachment: try_murmur3.diff
Add an option
hash_algorithm: murmur3|md5
in the yaml, to specify the hash function.
this requires an upgrade to guava to version 11.0.1, i changed the build.xml,
but didn't include the jar in this patch.

> MD5 is a relatively heavyweight hash to use when we don't need cryptographic
> qualities, just a good output distribution. Let's see how much overhead we
> can save by using Murmur3 instead.
