It depends on where your bottleneck is...
If you're cpu-bound you can try with a faster hash: md5sum or even
md4sum would be a good choice (collision resistance is irrelevant in
this application).

You could still be looking at a hardware failure situation here.
I have seen hard drives with absolutely perfect SMART attributes pass
all the tests but still show the classic signs of a hard drive

I'm calculating checksums over partitions just by calling
# md5sum /dev/sda1
or for the complete disk (incl. partition table + all partitions)
# md5sum /dev/sda

Does anyone else notice a serious mess when copy/pasting to firefox.
Some other places too.
I'll mouse scrape something from and go to paste it into google, and
get some older paste plus the new one intermixed as a result.

"copy/paste", is it Ctrl+C/Ctrl+V type of copy/pasting or Middle-click
type of copy/pasting?

any problems.
