gollark: > When adding files, zpaq uses a rolling hash function to split files into fragments with an average size of 64 KB along content-dependent boundaries. Then it computes the SHA-1 hash of the fragment and compares it with saved hashes from the current and previous versions. If it finds a match then the fragment is not stored. How does *thiß* work?
gollark: Bee you.
gollark: `mmap`ed into memory, via bee.
gollark: It would just store all your files in a very big linked list.
gollark: Maybe osmarksfilesystem™ should happen too.
