in reply to multiple hash compare, find, create

My 2 cents:

The fastest way to intersect two hashes are hash slices.

See Using hashes for set operations...

28 million keys sounds weird this should lead to ~ 2.8 GB of memory consumption.

Reorganizing such hashes into nested hashes is recommended if you can bundle accesses to the same sub hash.

See Re: write hash to disk after memory limit
