23 * This is INCREDIBLY ugly, but fast. We break the string up into 8 byte
24 * units. On the first time through the loop we get the "leftover bytes"
25 * (strlen % 8). On every other iteration, we perform 8 HASHC's so we handle
26 * all 8 bytes. Essentially, this saves us 7 cmp & branch instructions. If
27 * this routine is heavily used enough, it's worth the ugly coding.
