hashcat Forum

Is it possible to run a couple hashcats simultaneously, for example, for cpu and for gpu, or 2 for gpu?

Yes but you have to use hashtopolis server for it https://github.com/hashtopolis/server

Do you mean running different jobs on the same computer? In that case use --session <sessionname>. If you want to run a job using both gpu and cpu, you can use -D 1,2 or -D 1 for cpu only. -D 2 is default, gpu only. If you have more than one gpu, on the same machine, you can also use -d to decide which gpu to use. See also hashcat --help.

Thanks a lot, man! That's what I really needed - two simultaneous runs on one gpu to check a couple ideas in parallel )

be aware that two simultaneous runs on one gpu will slow down both attacks massivly
