Other than using a stronger hashing algorithm that produces longer hashes, would there be any advantage in storing two or more separate hashes of an object? The extra hashes could be from a different hash function, or a hash of the reversed bits/bytes.
I wonder about the difficulty of producing collisions for a single 256-bit hash function versus two 128-bit hash functions, four 64-bit hash functions and so on.
