It should be noted that the benchmark focused on the std::unordered_map implementation from GCC 13.2.0. I’m not sure if/how this conclusion can be extended to other implementations such as msvc or clang.
Well the author claims that it’s not possible for std::unordered_map to get close to other implementations because of constraints that the standard imposes on it. I.e. faster implementations simply behave slightly differently (in ways that are not important to most users).
