Nicolas Liochon commented on HBASE-12116: ----------------------------------------- I had a look at crc a while ago. My understanding back then was that there are specific instruction in x86 processors to calculate crc, unfortunately a little bit different than the standard crc32. When I was looking at Intel/Hadoop roadmap 2 years ago, it looked like Intel was planning to do the changes in hadoop to use the hw one.
