Now that I have had an Apple silicon for a while, which has enough cores to perform parallel work, this is how I calculated a bunch of hashed from a lot of large files:
find . -type f | xargs -P 0 -n 1 md5 -rfind . -type f | xargs -P 0 -n 1 shasum --algorithm 1find . -type f | xargs -P 0 -n 1 shasum --algorithm 256
I contemplated about using GNU parallel, but that is not installed by default on MacOS and I was already familiar with xargs.
Argument meanings can be found at these locations:
