 # The Parallel Hashmap
    or Abseiling from the shoulders of giants - © Gregory Popovitch - March 3, 2019
 
-[tl;dr] built on top of Abseil's *flat_hash_map*, the parallel hashmap is more memory friendly, almost as fast as the underlying *flat_hash_map*, and can be used from multiple threads with high levels of concurrency.
+[tl;dr] We present a novel hashmap design, the Parallel Hashmap. Built on top of Abseil's *flat_hash_map*, the Parallel Hashmap has lower space requirements, is nearly as fast as the underlying *flat_hash_map*, and can be used from multiple threads with high levels of concurrency.

 <p>If you haven't been living under a rock, you know that Google open sourced late last year their Abseil library, which includes a very efficient flat hash table implementation. The <em>absl::flat_hash_map</em> stores the values directly in a memory array, which avoids memory indirections (this is referred to as closed hashing).</p>
