They make key look-ups *extremely* fast by converting the items' keys into *deterministic* hash values specifiying *precisely* one of a fixed number of equally \"wide\" buckets in which an item's references are stored. A limitation is that objects used as keys must be *immutable* (for technical reasons) and *unique* (for practical reasons).\n",
