The FAQ says
"Please note that due to the nature of the current hashing algorithm, an even hash bucket count (and esp. values of the power of two) are a bad choice."
Is this still true? What is the reason for this? And: Does
any odd hashtable size work as well as other odd hash tables sizes
in the same order of magnitude?
