fchksum is a Python module to find the checksum of files. Currently it
|
|
supports crc32 and md5 checksums.
|
|
|
|
The advantage of using fchksum over the python md5 and zlib(.crc32) modules
|
|
is both ease of use and speed. You only need to tell it the filename and the
|
|
actual work is done by C code. Compared to the implementing a read loop in
|
|
python with the standard python modules, fchksum is approximatly 2.0x faster
|
|
in md5 and 1.1x faster in crc32.
