----------------------------------
Summary: Remove Blob.sha256()
Key: OAK-1050
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/OAK-1050
Project: Jackrabbit Oak
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: core
Reporter: Jukka Zitting
Assignee: Jukka Zitting
The {{Blob.sha256()}} method can be really expensive as the MicroKernel doesn't
keep track of that information and thus the method may result in a full scan of
potentially gigabytes of data. Furthermore the method is only used for internal
purposes.
Thus I suggest that we remove the method from the public Blob interface and
keep the functionality only as an implementation detail for now. We can always
bring back the method or something similar when there is real need for it.
