Hybrid Attack slow Dict + Mask - zeroprobe - 09-05-2013 When running using the Dictionary + Mask mode , the speed is very slow and does not utilize my other two graphics cards. However when using Mask + Dictionary the speed is very fast. Have I missed something in the working of it or could this be a bug? RE: Hybrid Attack slow Dict + Mask - Rolf - 09-05-2013 Not a bug, it's due to the parallel nature of workload dispatcher. The best thing you could do is prepare the wordlist (there's a splitlen tool in hcutils that does this) and sort it by length. Once oclhc reaches words with 4 characters in it, the attack will be at normal speeds. I explained it how I understand it, maybe Atom can provide you with more accurate and full info. RE: Hybrid Attack slow Dict + Mask - atom - 09-05-2013 preparing wordlist wont help here, the problem is that the dictionary is to small. you need a bigger dictionary. RE: Hybrid Attack slow Dict + Mask - zeroprobe - 09-05-2013 Makes sense. Thanks for clearing it up.
