To clarify: with MurmurHash{2,3} or CityHash, it's easy to generate arbitrary numbers of reasonably small keys which all hash to the same value regardless of what seed is used. This is much worse than most people initially assume when they hear that "collisions in murmurhash have been found".

That said, it's a fine hash function if you're not worried about malicious keys.
