Hey #digipres folks, if you have a second away from ipres—does anyone have opinions about using CRC32 to generate checksums? I don't often see it discussed, only MD5 and the various SHAs.
My sense is that it's less cryptographically secure, but the particular use-case we're working on is just monitoring tarred bags for bitrot, and I'm told that CRC32 is easier to calculate for large files.
