hash4lf

Fast hashing for large files

A rewritten version of imohash in Rust.

Usage

Add this to your Cargo.toml:

toml [dependencies] hash4lf = "0.1"

then

```rust use hash4lf::Hasher;

// Creates a new hasher using default sample parameters let hasher = Hasher::new(); //or creates with custom sample parameters let hasher = Hasher::withsamplesizeandthreshold(3, 45);

// Hashes a byte slice let hashvalue = hasher.sum("hello".asbytes()).unwrap();

// Hashes a file let hashvalue = hasher.sumfile("samples/system.evtx").unwrap(); ```

Algorithm

Consult the documentation for more information.

Misuses

Because hash4lf only reads a small portion of a file's data, it is not suitable for:

• file verification or integrity monitoring
• cases where fixed-size files are manipulated
• anything cryptographic
