Well, the org.gnu.crypto implementation was working alright, simple to use and it was tested. That's all I was really interested in.
I was using rar, by the way, because I really don't care whether or not it's an open format or not as long as it's free accessible for everyone.

Honestly, I don't mind using your code instead but my focus was getting it to the point where it's about working, not some minor optimizations to a hash function.

Really, I will use your code before your work goes to waste and I trust you that your implementation is faster but I'm more concerned with testing other parts of my THEX code right now, so I probably won't be able to take a look at this at the moment.
