Sorry, I misread your statement about the bottleneck.
Most checksum functions are not designed to allow parallel processing of a single hashing operation and the sha1/2 familiy is one of that. (due to the Merkle-Damgard construction)
With the much slower GPU cores I would expect hashing of even muitiple files (limited by either IO or PCIe bandwidth) to be slower.
