BuzHash for js

Usage:

var BuzHash = require('BuzHash');
var buz = new BuzHash(32);
...
var hash = buz.update(byte)

Useful for generating rolling hashes for variable sized chunk deduplication. Pure js implementation though so it's probably slow as balls.

Run node test.js to see 3 test cases with data that has been slightly modified each time. The first column is the byte index, the second is the first 10 characters of the sha256 for that chunk.

Notice that the sha's match up again after the modified sections. With this you can see what chunk is different.

Example Run

$ node test.js
