hash for whole file. Imagine 40 GB VM image - few parts of the image are
modified continuously (VM log files and application data are constantly
changing). Those writes making checksum invalid and BitD has to recalculate
it endlessly. As the result - checksum of VM image can never be verified.

And what about enabling bitrot for small files like emails in a maildir?
in this case the bitrot feature with 1 hash for the whole file would be ok.
