In .NET System.Object.GetHashCode method is use in a lot of places throughout the .NET base class libraries. Especially when finding items in a collection fast or to determine equality. Is there a standard algorithm/ best practise on how to implement the GetHashCode override for my custom classes so I don't degrate performance?
