This patch makes the processing of large really large files more efficient
by making sure that the sender's hash table is large enough to hold all the
-checksum entries without being overloaded. It also makes the hasing of
-normal sized files use slightly less memory than before.
+checksum entries without being overloaded. Unfortunately, the code adds a
+modulus calculation for (up to) every byte of the source file, which slows
+down the code for normal file sizes (e.g. 4 CPU seconds slower on a Pentium
+III when copying a 65 MB file without very much matching data).

+This was updated for the latest codebase from a patch written by Shachar
+Shemesh.
