Cuckoo hashing is an efficient technique for creating large hash tables with high space utilization and guaranteed constant access times. There, each item can be placed in a location given by any one out of k different hash functions. In this paper we investigate the random-walk heuristic for inserting in an online fashion new items into the hash table. Provided that k >= 3 and that the number of items in the table is below (but arbitrarily close to) the theoretically achievable load threshold, we show a polylogarithmic bound for the maximum insertion time that holds with probability 1 - o(1) as the size of the table grows large. |
