Block size of hash functions?

I have tweaked the property to include cryptographic hash function (Q477202) as well. Most hash functions also process their input in blocks, whose size is called "block size", e.g. w:en:SHA-1#Comparison of SHA functions. This has been proposed on the "block size" talk page on enwiki too: w:en:Talk:Block size (cryptography). Intgr (talk) 09:10, 9 March 2016 (UTC)
