Log:
  MFC r266208: Speed up pmcstat by improving string hash
  
    In one case generating callgraph output from a 24MB system-wide sampling
    data file took 17.4 seconds on average.  Profiling showed pmcstat
    spending a lot of time in strcmp, due to hash collisions.
  
    Replacing the XOR-only hash with FNV-1a reduces the run time for my
    test by 40%.
