FWIW, I don't believe these results for one second. It's quite plausible
that there's a noticeable performance benefit, but a factor of three is
completely unrealistic... Could you please recheck?

A possible theory is that the hash change moved some locks into
different partitions causing a large reduction in contention,
but even then 3X seems unlikely.  And of course if that was
the mechanism, the result is still pure luck; other examples
might get worse by the same amount.

I must have screwed something up, because if anything I see a small loss for 
XXH now (but my laptop isn't consistent enough to be sure).

This surprises me given that SMHasher shows XXH to be 50% faster than Spooky 
for 20 byte keys.
