If feasible, you may want to generate MD5 sums on the streamed output

You can also stream into a gzip or lzop wrapper in order to obtain the benefit of incremental CRCs and some compression as well. As long as the wrapper is generated on the sending side (and not subject to problems like truncation) it should be quite useful for verifying that the stream has not been corrupted.
