I believe xxhash is now stable enough to warrant a v1.0 tag, so here's the first official release.

Features

  • xxhsum command to hash files and check their hashes from the command line.
  • The native version is optimized and is as fast as you can get in pure Go.
  • On Go tip (using SSA), the native go version is faster than the C version.
  • The native version falls back to a less optimized version on appengine (it uses unsafe).
  • Both the native version and the cgo version supports 64bit and 32bit versions of the algorithm.
  • When using the cgo version, it will automatically fallback to the native version if cgo isn't available, you can check the xxhash.Backend const.
