We're implementing checksum providers into DDF. Our initial benchmark testing is intended to give a brief overview into the performance of each of the checksums tested.
Assumptions and Decisions
Certain assumptions and decisions were made during this testing:
...
| Algorithm | ~5MB | ~50MB | ~200MB |
|---|---|---|---|
| CRC32 | .00096 | .001388 | .001672 |
| MD5 | .00308 | .004392 | .004396 |
~ Average MB/S Comparison
| Algorithm | ~Avg MB/s |
|---|---|
| CRC32 | .00134 |
| MD5 | .003956 |
Result Analysis
- There seems to be a skew in the data for > ~50MB and the first run taking significantly longer than other test runs.
- CRC32 has the lowest average approximate MB/s.
- MD5 seems to be outperformed in every metric in each of its size categories.
