behrangsa opened a new pull request #31: Added non-blocking File digest methods
URL: https://github.com/apache/commons-codec/pull/31
 
 
   Added two methods:
   
   * `nonblockingDigest(final MessageDigest messageDigest, final File data)`
   * `nonblockingDigest(final MessageDigest messageDigest, final RandomAccessFile data)`
   
   For using NIO to compute the digest of files.
   
   Performance-wise there's almost no improvements offered by these new NIO based methods, but being non-blocking they could potentially use fewer resources and provide
   better throughput in highly multi-threaded scenarios (needs to be confirmed/rejected by IO/NIO experts).
