TentHash is a new large-size non-cryptographic hash. Unlike hashes intended for use in hash maps, TentHash's target use cases are things like data fingerprinting and content addressable systems, which don't tolerate collisions.
Rather than aiming to be the fastest hash, TentHash aims to be simple to implement, portable, and conservative about hash quality. However, it does still have reasonable performance at around 9 GB/s.
Note that although the specification is currently at v0.4, the intention is to declare that version final in a few months if no issues are found in that time.
