There's an RFC and followup Sigcomm paper that focuses on the data
touching overheads and speeds of MD5 in particular:

        "Report on MD5 Performance"
        J. Touch, RFC-1810, ISI, June, 1995.
        available lots of places, also cached at:
        http://www.isi.edu/touch/pubs/rfc1810.html

        "Performance Analysis of MD5"
        J. Touch, Proc. Sigcomm '95, Boston, pp. 77-86.
        http://www.isi.edu/touch/pubs/sigcomm95.html
