True.

How "hashdeep" handles this, is to have parallelism
available at the file level. Something like...

    hashdeep -C MD5 -j 12 /home/wally

Each thread of execution works on a file. Some threads
finish before others, and such threads then start work
on the next file.

This is only a "productive" option on an SSD, as an
SSD has zero seek time and doesn't mind having the
"head" thrown all over the place by all that random
seeking.

If you use that expression on a regular HDD, the "thrashing"
that results is counter-productive. Switching to -j 1
may help in such cases (serialization).

When operated in that way, the order of output from the
program (with -j 12 threads) is never twice in the same order.
Depending on the intended application, this may or may
not matter (I fix this by "sorting" the output file).

On an SSD, that option really flies... You could have 12
threads checking the hash on files and determining which
file(s) need backup. Twelve threads running at 450MB/sec
each could handle all the read rate available on an
NVMe flash drive.
