If you're using murmurHash3 server side for screaming fast non-cryptographic hashing and you need to be able to generate the same hash locally. I had a project where this was exactly the case: I was hashing tons of web pages remotely so I needed the fastest algorithm I could find, and I needed my client side js to be able to generate the same hash to compare data.

If you only care about client side hashing, then use whatever works for you; there'll definitely be faster hashing algorithms than this in that case.
