Nice optimisation, but who thought it would be a good idea to use MD5 in a Bloom filter?!
MD5 is a cryptographic hash (even though it's not secure anymore for most purposes) and while it's pretty fast, you don't need any of its crypto properties, just the properties of a good quality regular hash function. Such as Murmur, or even simply FNV.
