Right now my program is stomping my CPU...
How do the following attribute of a hash key:
size (something like an alphanumeric string about 70 chars wide)
similarity (groups of about 30% of the keys are similar for the 1st
n-10 characters
affect the performance of:
key listings (things like grep /pattern/, keys %hash)
key lookups (referencing $hash{$key})
What are the key factors in /good performing/ hash keys?
Thank you for your input.
