This can be implemented such that the checksum is optional.

> We are considering changes in Flume's file channel to use Avro, one of the requirements is that each event (which maps to one avro record) be checksummed so we know if the data is corrupt. 
> We'd probably have to add a new version for this, since this will change the data format on disk. I can start working on a Java version if there are no objections
