  • robin-hood-hashing

    Discontinued Fast & memory efficient hashtable based on robin hood hashing for C++11/14/17/20

  • Time complexity analysis doesn't necessarily reflect empirical performance. On this benchmark, std::map is twice as slow as clang's std::unordered_map on my laptop and unordered_map is seven times as slow as robin_hood, a single-header library. std::unordered_map is weirdly slow.

  • HashTable

    simple hash table implementation

  • Then decided to build the simplest hashmap I could think of and test it against unordered_map https://github.com/brwhale/HashTable

  • InfluxDB

  • LMRTFY

    Let Me Run That For You: A C++20 Thread Pool Library

  • I am actually in the process of updating it to C++20 (here if you're curious), I'm going to consider it. I would like to not exclude clang users though, if at all possible. It wouldn't save me much code switching to jthread for the potential loss of users.

  • C++ Format

    A modern formatting library

  • For output, fmtlib (partially included in C++20 too)

  • udb2

    For details, see the blog post:
