title: Is there any very rapid checksum generation algorithm?
body: <p>Searched around a bit, but I didn't really find what I wat looking for.</p>
  
  <p>I have to validate about 100 byte[16384]'s every second (+ many other tasks..). The biggest problem that looks around the corner is speed.</p>
  
  <p>Do you guys know any good checksum algorithm within C#.NET that is insanely fast? It does not have to be very exact, but if a single bit changes, the checksum should (usually..) change as well.</p>
  
  <p>The byte's are stored in memory, so there's no IO stuff which slows it down.</p>
  
  <p>Thanks!  </p>
