> For small files (e.g. where we read in all the bytes anyway), we currently
> validate the checksum on reader init.
> But for larger files like .doc/.frq/.pos/.dvd/.fdt/.tvd we currently do
> nothing at all on init, as it would be too expensive.
> We should at least do this:
> {code}
> // NOTE: data file is too costly to verify checksum against all the bytes on
> // open, but for now we at least verify proper structure of the checksum
> // footer: which looks for FOOTER_MAGIC + algorithmID. This is cheap
> // and can detect some forms of corruption such as file truncation.
> CodecUtil.retrieveChecksum(data);
> {code}
