It is pretty crucial that different hash functions are used for the
partitioning across machines, and the internal partitioning of data structures.
If the same hash function is used for both, many internal data structure
partitions will be empty.
So far we divided it the following way (admittedly not documented)
- murmur hash across machines
- Jenkins hash internally in data structures
How about we stick with that division and use Murmur Hash in the streaming
partitioner as well?
