As someone else has pointed out, MD5 is no longer considered secure
(neither is SHA-1). If you want cryp

Thanks Dan, this is exactly what I had in mind (hashing the block checksums).
You convinced me to do it independently from zfs.

If you were considering the hash
Is there a O(nb_blocks_for_the_file) solution, then?

is there a way to compute very quickly some hash of a file in a zfs?

I can avoid reading whole files with md5sum just to get a unique hash. Seems
very redundant to me :)
Bottom line is I want to mak
