[jira] [Created] (TS-1925) remove obsolete MMH hash

James Peach created TS-1925:
-------------------------------

             Summary: remove obsolete MMH hash
                 Key: TS-1925
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TS-1925
             Project: Traffic Server
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Core
            Reporter: James Peach


We have a MMH hash implementation, that is only ever used in HostDB. There is a tiny option to use MD5 instead, but much of the code duplicates various hashing operations for MD5 and MMH.

It may be useful to have a clean API to switch out different hash functions, but this is just making the code more complex with little benefit.
