rsync and MD5

[David de Lama]

That decision obviously depends on processing power and network capacity
available. A recent thread on Slashdot
(http://tech.slashdot.org/tech/08/12/14/162235.shtml) mentioned this
research which might give more insight:

And btw, I though rsync used MD4, not MD5.

"Version 30 of the protocol (released with rsync version 3.0.0) now uses MD5 hashes rather than MD4."
