725	Hash algorithm	Paul Price	Paul Price	"The current psMetadata implementation sets the size of the hash to 10 buckets. 
This means that if a psMetadata contains significantly more than one entry,
there are hash collisions which trigger a linear search of the linked list. 
This seems to be counter to the idea of using a hash in the first place.  While
we can simply increase the size of the hash for psMetadata (what would be a good
choice?), I understand there are alternatives, such as dynamically scaling the
size of the hash.  This might be something to consider some time in the future."	enhancement	assigned	lowest		PSLib	unspecified	minor			rhl@…
