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.
