In an open addressing hash table with fill factor ''f'', an unsuccessful lookup performs about ''1/(1-f)'' probes.[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hash_table#Performance_analysis] In an <code>OpenTable</code>, at worst ''f=F=3/4'' and so an unsuccessful lookup performs 4 probes on average. In the usual case, ''f=3F/4=9/16'', so about 2.3 probes on average.
