Check if files equal

new topic     » topic index » view thread      » older message » newer message

What is the fastest way of checking if two very large files (~500 MB) are
equal?
I was thinking about this:
-name
-size
-date last modified
-pick about 10 random positions and check if bytes at those positions in
both files match.

Is there any better and faster way that I'm not aware of?
