you can use the program "mkpasswd". Alternatively here is a hash for password "hashcat": $2a$05$LhayLxezLhK1LhWvKxCyLOj0j1u.Kj0jZ0pEmm134uzrQlFvQJLF6
ok thank you, i will try to do this, i will post the result.
i've wanted to try hashcat to see the potential of the software.

Hello,

I am interesting in this.
How can you compare CPU and GPU performances ?

I would like to compare :
Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-2820QM and NVidia Quadro 2000M, 2047MB, 1100Mhz, 4MCU

this solely depends on the PSA used. The more memory access a PSA needs to calculate, the slower it gets on a GPU while it does not affect a CPU performance that much.
why cracking bcrypt is very slow? it is more than generate hash then compare?
bcrypt is slow because it performs thousands of small-but-frequent pseudorandom memory reads and writes. thus the algorithm is very expensive.
i understand now, thank for your explanation.
