Depends what you do. If you populate it only once and then you do a bunch of lookups, assuming a low load factor, you'll be paying for a modulo operation and an extra indirection, not great but not terrible either. If you do a lot of inserts and removal or your load factor is high, then the performance is going to be not great.

My benchmark is one insert, multiple lookups, repeat.

I have no use for deletions. Although when I want to make a general benchmark, I probably should measure it once, too
