Hi David, I created a feature request a few years ago (http://forums.4d.fr/Post/EN/13706008/1/13706009#13706009) because I was in the same situation you are and turned to php as well. Only I was doing a SHA1 instead of MD5. Anyway, the thing I was running into wasn’t a file size limit but a time limit. PHP calls error out after 30 seconds which wasn’t enough time to compute the SHA1 on the size of files I was working with.
I just mention it in case this is what is happening to you as well. -- Cannon Smith Synergy Farm Solutions Inc.
