My understanding is that he's having two different computers put lots of data 
into SQLite files, and wanting to compare MD5 hashes of the two files and use 
that to prove that both computers put the same data in.  What we've done is 
tell him that he's going to get very many false negatives, where both computers 
put the same information into the database but he ended up with different MD5 
hashes because the files on disk have different contents.
