+config CRC32_SLICEBY8
+ bool "Slice by 8 bytes"
+ help
+ Calculate checksum 8 bytes at a time with a clever slicing algorithm.
+ This is the fastest algorithm, but comes with a 8KiB lookup table.
+ Most modern processors have enough cache to hold this table without

+

+ bool "Slice by 4 bytes"
+ help
+ Calculate checksum 4 bytes at a time with a clever slicing algorithm.
+ This is a bit slower than slice by 8, but has a smaller 4KiB lookup
+ table.
