Description

Calculates xxHash checksums from Python code using a very fast non-cryptographic hash algorithm. It helps applications compare data blocks, build caches, deduplicate content, or create quick fingerprints.

Developers use it as a performance-focused hashing library. xxHash is not meant for passwords, signatures, or security decisions; use a cryptographic hash when tamper resistance matters.
