I added FtpFileMD5 and FtpFileCrc32B to OverbyteIcsFtpSrvT.pas, to

Ah OK, I think this is a good choice, since usually you won't
calculate the MD5 checksum of the same file multiple times in
sequence.
They are used in OverbyteIcsMD5Test which compares the buffered and
non-buffered versions. I believe the buffered stream version is
faster on a first read, but no different once Windows has cached the
file. Windows caching makes comparsions very difficult.
That's true, it becomes even more difficult to compare cached and
non-cached writes.
Just a quick shot: Maybe Chunksize can be made a parameter? I guess
that this could replace the buffered stream IO and make it even faster,
provided Chunksize was large enough. Knowing the Chunksize would
IMO also ease and speed up progress calculations in a callback
routine, ProgressBar isn't aware of int64.
