algorithms. I think (as Casper said), that should you need to, use SHA to weed out the cases where the checksums are different (since, that definitively indicates they are different), then do a bitwise compare on any that produce the same checksum, to see if they really are the same file.
Additionally, when you start the comparison, you are likely to find out *right away* (within the first few bytes of the first block) that the files are different. -frank _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
