-<h2><a name="description" id="description">Description</a></h2>
-<p>This test inserts a number of values with a markedly
- non-uniform i.i.d. integer keys into a container, then performs
- a series of finds using <tt>find</tt> . It measures the average
- time for <tt>find</tt> as a function of the number of values in
- the containers. The keys are generated as follows. First, a
- uniform integer is created; it is then shifted left 8 bits.</p>

-<p>In this setting, the keys' distribution is so skewed that
- the unerlying hash-table type affects performance marginally.
- (This is in contrast with <a href="hash_text_find_find_timing_test.html">Hash-Based Text
- <tt>find</tt> Find Timing Test</a> , <a href="hash_random_int_find_find_timing_test.html">Hash-Based
- Random-Integer <tt>find</tt> Find Timing Test</a> , <a href="hash_random_int_subscript_find_timing_test.html">Hash-Based
- Random-Integer Subscript Find Timing Test</a> and <a href="hash_random_int_subscript_insert_timing_test.html">Hash-Based
- Random-Integer Subscript Insert Timing Test</a> .)</p>
-<p>The range-hashing scheme affects performance dramatically. A
- mask-based range-hashing scheme effectively maps all values
- into the same bucket. Access degenerates into a search within
- an unordered linked-list. In Figures <a href="#NHG">NHG</a> and
- <a href="#NHM">NHM</a> , it should be noted that
- <tt>std::tr1::unordered_map</tt> and <tt>stdext::hash_map</tt>
- are hard-wired currently to mod-based and mask-based schemes,
- respectively.</p>
-<p>When observing the settings of this test, it is apparent
- that the keys' distribution is far from natural. One might ask
- if the test is not contrived to show that, in some cases,
- mod-based range hashing does better than mask-based range
- hashing. This is, in fact just the case. We did not encounter a
- more natural case in which mod-based range hashing is better.
- In our opnion, real-life key distributions are handled better
- with an appropriate hash function and a mask-based
- range-hashing function. (<a href="http://gcc.gnu.org/viewcvs/*checkout*/trunk/libstdc%2B%2B-v3/testsuite/ext/pb_ds/example/hash_shift_mask.cc"><tt>shift_mask.cc</tt></a>
- shows an example of handling this a-priori known skewed
- distribution with a mask-based range-hashing function). If hash
- performance is bad, a <i>&Chi;<sup>2</sup></i> test can be used
- to check how to transform it into a more uniform
- distribution.</p>
-<p>For this reason, <tt>pb_ds</tt>'s default range-hashing
- function is mask-based.</p>
