 Found a case where it blows up. Find -exec will eliminate the need for 2G
of RAM to hold the md5sum commandline. Now to set the ulimit for RAM
uasage to a reasonable level. ;)


# md5sum `find "$P"  -type f ` > $T
 find "$P" -type f -exec md5sum "{}" + > $T

 Then again the program is worth every penny it cost.
