Let's take a step back and consider where the real performance issues are. Given: 1. IPNS resolves to a CID. 2. In parallel: a. IPFS looks in the DHT for...

So, what if we instead we push features that better enable pinning services? A web-backed blockservice will work for individual apps but makes it *much* harder for apps to interoperate...
Yeah, but if data gets soloed into per-app S3 buckets, we're not building dapps. We're going to have a *very* hard time convincing devs to use IPLD if we're not...
Yeah, this seems wrong. I'm not sure what's going on here.
I believe we should be using Sum64 (which is also not 128 but it's what go-unixfs uses). Honestly, we should _never_ use this hash function for anything.
Hm. I'm not sure what to do about these. * We added a definition for the x11 _code_ to this package but never intended to implement it in this package...
Fallible hashers are... annoying. The rust API doesn't make any room for them either. One solution would be to change the hash digest. E.g., if we run into a "broken"...
