The wikipedia page might be a bit misleading - there's a 128-bit murmur3 that uses 32-bit math (works well on most every processor), and a 128-bit murmur3 that uses 64-bit math (much faster on 64-bit processors, much slower on 32-bit ones)

ah, so there is mm3-128-32 and mm3-128-64

that makes it actually a viable alternative to MD5
