| # odht |
| |
| A Rust crate for hash tables that can be mapped from disk into memory without the need for up-front decoding. |
| The goal of the implementation is to provide a data structure that |
| |
| - can be used exactly in the format it is stored on disk, |
| - provides roughly the same performance as a `HashMap` from Rust's standard library, |
| - has a completely deterministic binary representation, |
| - is platform and endianess independent, so that data serialized on one system can be used on any other system, and |
| - is independent of alignment requirements so that |
| - its use is not restricted to certain classes of CPUs, and |
| - the data structure can be mapped to arbitrary memory addresses. |
| |
| This crate is developed and maintained by the Rust compiler team for internal use within `rustc`. |
| This crate will have regular breaking changes and provides no stability guarantees. |
