Abstract:In this paper, we conducted empirical experiments to study the performance of hashing with a large set of data and compared the results of different collision approaches. The experiment results leaned more to closed addressing than to open addressing and deemed linear probing impractical due to its low performance. Moreover, when items are randomly distributed with keys in a large space, different hash algorithms might produce similar performance. Increasing randomness in keys does not help hash table performa… Show more
