If a single block in a 1GB file is changed, to update, a node only needs to re-download one small block, which is fine.

If a few bytes are added to the start of the file, or if a bunch of small changes are made, is this currently inefficient?

If so, is the support of diff objects planned? For example: ipfs_object_hash_1 + ipfs_diff_object_hash -> ipfs_object_hash_2
