Looking for help on "gpu-accel" param - jAm - 01-31-2011
Hi,
I use cudaHashcat+64, thanks for this awesome work.
I need help on the gpu-accel / workload tuning.
Help says :
Quote:scales best if you choose the number of SP per SM
NVidia = 8
What does it mean ? I have :
Quote:Platform: NVidia compatible platform found
Device #1: GeForce 8400 GS, 239MB, 1400Mhz, 1MCU
Device #1: Kernel ./kernels/4318/m1000.sm_11.64.cubin
I tried n=8, it was slow, I tried n=256 it was faster.. How many is the best ? I run the programm only overnight, so I do not need the graphic display (my screen is off).
I also saw "--gpu-loops 1000" in your posts, must I use this ? Which number ?
My use is to run it on md5/ntlm/sha1/mysql hashes overnight, with a dict and "d3ad0ne" rules.
Thanks for help.

Fastest mode is -n 320 --gpu-loops 1000/1024 .

OK, thank you !
I got :
Quote:max --gpu-loops 512 in this --mode
-m is MD5.
Why ?
