/* Fast hashing routine for ints, longs and pointers.

/*
* Knuth recommends primes in approximately golden ratio to the maximum
* integer representable by a machine word for multiplicative hashing.
* Chuck Lever verified the effectiveness of this technique:
* http://www.citi.umich.edu/techreports/reports/citi-tr-00-1.pdf
*
* These primes are chosen to be bit-sparse, that is operations on
* them can use shifts and additions instead of multiplications for
* machines where multiplications are slow.
