Change GPU workload - 23732 - 09-09-2012

Would it be possible to change the workload while oclHashcat is running?

F. ex. if you have your computer running 24/7 doing MD5 decryption, but you want to be able to use it normally without lag during the day, and use the GPU's full potential during the night.

No, but you can [p]ause and [r]esume

What about a timer that set it to full GPU acceleration in f. ex 8 hours?

Sounds more like a single-user problem Smile

Not that it's something we cannot work without but there are times where I could use it. Sometimes when you are in the middle of a run and find your GPUs are overheating too much or if you want to temporarily lower your fan noises without stopping everything, adjusting the -n during a run would be useful. If I remember well, one or a couple of older versions would do that when pressing the + and - keys.

Yeah I know, I removed it because it caused to much trouble.
