Hi,

I've been trying to speed up the calculation of the Tiger hash.

Though its said that it is a fast hash function beating sha-1,
but I can't get anywhere near the sha-1 speed.

While sha-1 is limited by my HDD speed at about ~120mb/s,
the Tiger hash is limited by my cpu and the speed drops down to ~42mb/s.

I've attached the current version for the Tiger hash algorithm I'm using,
or view it here

Going by this site the Tiger hash should be considerately faster.
I know those hashes are highly optimized, but isn't there a way to get more speed in my code in C#?
