Do you mean checking the hash result against a known value, or doing a
digital signature (e.g. RSA/ECDSA) verification?

I think that these benchmark results are for a long stream of data, so
you may wish to apply them with a grain of salt when guessing the time
taken to hash just 32KB. But if you look at MiB/Second (mebibyte/sec
basically megabyte/sec), this might give you a rough idea of the
speed. e.g. SHA-256 does about 81 MB/sec, assuming you can keep it fed
with data that fast. The rest is just maths - 81MB/sec is (81*32) *
32KB/sec, so you might be able to do about 2400 such hashes per second
- although there will be more overhead in doing 2400 small chunks of
32 KB than in doing one chunk of 81MB.
