No -- You are confusing password hashing algorithms with general purpose hashing algorithms. Algorithms like bcrypt and scrypt have a tunable difficulty parameter, and are designed to be slow.
For general purpose hashing, you want to check if the fingerprint of these ten gigabytes of data is the same as the fingerprint of these other ten gigabytes, as quickly as possible. Or whether a file that you downloaded is the same as this other file. Or whether the data that you transferred has been tampered with or corrupted. Speed is important enough that this was one of the criteria in the hash algorithm selection process.
The key feature of a general purpose hashing algorithm is resistance to preimage attacks. In other words, "If I want hash 0x123456, what should the input be?" needs to be a difficult question to answer.
Speed is key when you are getting a fingerprint of a large amount of data. Don't use a general purpose hash directly for hashing passwords: It's better than plain text, but it's inferior by a long shot to special purpose password hashes.
