What (non-cryptographic) hash functions should a hypothetical future Boost hash library contain? Have clear winners emerged by now? Which ones do people prefer?

SipHash is basically a given, but it's not optimized for speed.

There are a number of widely used hash functions. I often use MurmurHash or one-at-a-time for their speed and simplicity. CityHash is also known and I've just discovered its successor, FarmHash.
