    umash (https://github.com/backtrace-labs/umash) has a similar structure PH block structure, but was designed for decent bit mixing (enough to satisfy smhasher, unlike CLHASH, which needs an additional finalizer) with a lower fixed time cost: 22 cycles for a one-byte hash.

    I'm not sure how one would use that linear regression. What kind of hardware offers 675 GB/s of memory bandwidth? 140 bytes/cycle is easily more than twice the L2 read bandwidth offered by any COTS chip I'm aware of. There are also warm up effects past the fixed cost of setup and finalizers that slow down hashing for short input. For what range of input sizes (and hot/cold cache state) would you say the regression is a useful model?
