qeustion about my hardware and H/s
#5
Ok, thanks.  I have a follow up questions.  I have looked for an answer online, and usually turns out to be that the program is not being fed enough work, which I don't think is the case.

I have tried this on both my home machine and on a Amazon EC2 instance, and it does it on both.  I understand that 7zip is a slow hash.  But when I run a benchmark I get anywhere from 500-800 H/s locally, and about 1000 for each of four cards on Amazon.

However when I run hashcat, The H/s consistently stays at 0 H/s.  Once every 5-10 minutes it will pop up to 500-800 for a few seconds, but most of the time it sits at zero.  I see the progress number going up slowly, but I am concerned I have something off somehow and am not getting anywhere near what I should be.

./cudaHashcat64.bin -m 11600 -a 3 output.hash mine.hcmask -w 2 -o itisdone.txt --outfile-format=15 --status --status-timer=15 --session=markov --markov-hcstat=mynew.hcstat --markov-threshold=25 -n 160 -u 1024
