enhancement question

The checksum is computed with a md5sum process, we pipe data to it with buffers of 2048 bytes.

We can also pass the file name to md5sum, and it opens the file by itself.

Another way is to use OCaml Digest module, which is in fact used to generate the checksum of the desc file.

What is the performance of each solution?
