   Extremely fast hash algorithm

   xxHash is an Extremely fast Hash algorithm, running at RAM speed
   limits. It successfully completes the SMHasher test suite which
   evaluates collision, dispersion and randomness qualities of hash
   functions. Code is highly portable, and hashes are identical on all
   platforms (little / big endian).

Doug offered to package it

but he never followed up with the upload
