AHashMapis way faster thanHashMapin nearly all circumstances.HashMapon the other hand has some 'defensive' affordances built in. However, these affordances are not expected for C++ map types: Nostdmap type grants these, probably because they are what makesHashMapso slow. In addition, most users of map types do not need these affordances.In the interest of performance, this changes the recommended map type to
AHashMap.
