What is the maximum file size that the “Generate digest” command can process 
when computing an MD5 checksum?

 

In my app, I want to allow the user to generate an MD5 checksum on any file of 
their choosing.  The Generate digest command blows up with a “-108 Not enough 
space in memory error” when I try to generate an MD5 checksum on large files.  
If I can find out what the maximum file size that Generate digest can process, 
I can write an If check to keep the file from processing and just inform the 
user that the file is too large to process.  It would also be useful to know 
what the file size limits are for SHA-1.

 

Thanks,
