Hi out there,
I have to
test if two files on two different systems are identical. I thought MD5 would be the right way for this.
Well, all works fine but generating a MD5-Hash for very large files is not very performant (you can drink a lot of
coffee during that operation:-)).
OK my little question is if I generate the Hash only for example for the first 1024 (or 4096 or ...) Bytes of a file do you think this would be a unique hash than?
Thanx a lot
Bye
Mark
