Faster.Map - A collection of Robin-hood hashmaps (FastMap and DenseMap)

The goal of Faster is to provide the fastest hashmap that integrates into the .net framework.

Faster.Map uses the following:

  • Open addressing
  • Linear probing
  • Upper limit on the probe sequence lenght(psl) which is Log2(size)
  • Fibonacci hashing

About

Faster is a small robinhood hashmap with minimal memory overhead and incredibly fast runtime speed. See benchmarks, or try it out yourself. Faster.Map evolved from the fact that C# dictionaries in targetframework 4.0 are terribly slow. So i decided to create my own robinhood hashmap, turns out that this hashmap even performs better than the current dictionary written in .net5.

Get Started

  1. Install nuget package Faster.Map to your project.
dotnet add package Faster.Map

How to use

Faster.Map provides 2 unique hashmaps:

  1. FastMap<Tkey, TValue> is a hashmap which has incredible performance, will only work with numerical keys
  2. DenseMap<Tkey, TValue> is a hashmap which can be used as a replacement to IDicionary.

Examples

Default Example

private FastMap<uint, uint> _map = new FastMap<uint, uint>(16);     
  _map.Emplace(1, 50); 
  _map.Remove(1);
  _map.Get(1, out var result);
  _map.Update(1, 51); 
 var result = _map[1];

DenseMap Example

private DenseMap<uint, uint> _map = new DenseMap<uint, uint>(16);
 _map.Emplace(1, 50); 
 _map.Remove(1);
 _map.Get(1, out var result);
 _map.Update(1, 51);
