Sean Owen commented on MAHOUT-753:
----------------------------------
This suggests something is incorrect about MurmurHash. For example nextDouble()
generates a value from the uniform distribution in [0,1]. The standard
deviation ought to be sqrt((1-0)/12) ~= 0.2887. Random and MersenneTwister show
this value but MurmurHash is generating a deviation of twice that.
> MurmurHashRandom class: subclass of java.util.Random that uses MurmurHash
