My suggestion assumes that the URL => hash => content mapping is saved
somehow.
That is an assumption that needed to be made explicit from the start.
For example, save the content in a file named after the hash and
save the URL in a file whose name is the hash plus a suffix. Finding a
document by URL then becomes a grep(1) invocation.
This is not very efficient.
Please see the OP, step (d).
You are free to propose better solutions.
