Sharding almost solves the problem (for inactive blocks), but it was considered as stable just today :)
- Sharding is now stable for VM image storage.

May be because of current implementation of rotten bits detection - one hash for whole file. Imagine 40 GB VM image - few parts of the image are modified continuously (VM log files and application data are constantly changing). Those writes making checksum invalid and BitD has to recalculate it endlessly. As the result - checksum of VM image can never be verified.
I think you are right But what about sharding? In this case, the hash should be created for each shard and not the whole file.
