- * A HashMap implementation that uses open addressing with robinhood hashing.
- * Robinhood hashing swaps out entries that have a smaller probing distance
+ * A HashMap implementation that uses open addressing with Robin Hood hashing.
+ * Robin Hood hashing swaps out entries that have a smaller probing distance
  * than the to-be-inserted entry, that evens out the average probing distance
- * and enables faster lookups.
+ * and enables faster lookups. Backward shift deletion is employed to further
+ * improve the performance and to avoid infinite loops in rare cases.
  *
  * The entries are stored inplace, so huge keys or values might fill cache lines
  * a lot faster.
