> We're seeing some incidence of a large number of documents being marked as duplicate in our crawl.
> We traced it back to one of the crawl plugins returning an empty array for the content field.
> We'd like to propose changing the MD5 signature generation from:
> public byte[] calculate(Content content, Parse parse) {
>     byte[] data = content.getContent();
>     if (data == null)
>       data = content.getUrl().getBytes();
>     return MD5Hash.digest(data).getDigest();
>   }
> to:
> public byte[] calculate(Content content, Parse parse) {
>     byte[] data = content.getContent();
>     if ((data == null) || (data.length == 0))
>       data = content.getUrl().getBytes();
>     return MD5Hash.digest(data).getDigest();
>   }
> to address the issue
