Abstract
Methods and mechanisms for managing data in a hash table are disclosed. A computing system includes a hash table configured to store data and hash management logic. In response to receiving a request to insert data into the hash table, the hash management logic is configured to generate a first hash value by applying a first hash function to the key of the key-value pair, and identify a first bucket within the hash table that corresponds to the first hash table. If the first bucket has a slot available, store the key-value pair in the slot. If the first bucket does not have a slot available, select a first slot of the first bucket for conversion to a remap entry, store the key-value pair in a second bucket, and store information associating the key-value pair with the second bucket in the remap entry.
