So it's not just a hash table then. Because a hash table would automatically jump straight to an array index based on the hash function applied that created the key... so it's more of a combination of a linked list with a hash function, which really largely defeats the whole point of having a key in the first place, you might as well just have a binary search in an array - although I suppose you get less wasted memory that way.
