Very slow WPA cracking on NVIDIA 8500 GT Windows - twee - 03-05-2014
Hi.
I'm testing oclHashcat 1.01 on Windows running with NVIDIA GeForce 8500 GT, 256MB, 918Mhz, 2MCU, PC: Windows 7 64bit , Intel Core I5-2400 3.10GHZ (4 Cores)
When testing MD5 hashes, I get around 37000 khs which is reasonable and it seems to work smoothly.
But when attempting to run WPA/WPA2 cracking, it seems to be very very unreasonably slow, around 600 H/S, here is my command line and output, any idea ?!?!?, I also tried different --gpu-accel and --gpu-loops but getting the same results for WPA cracking.

Any idea why is it so slow for WPA but for MD5 it runs ok ?
RE: Very slow WPA cracking on NVIDIA 8500 GT Windows - curlyboi - 03-05-2014
Unless you mean 37 000 kH/s at MD5 then there is something seriously wrong with your setup.
Even Cain&Abel with CPU cracking on 10 years old laptop can do about 10 000 kH/s.
WPA(2) is *way* slower than md5 so that's that.
RE: Very slow WPA cracking on NVIDIA 8500 GT Windows - twee - 03-05-2014
Hi curlyboi,
Yes, I do mean 37000 Kh/s
But how come WPA is sooo much slower .... looks strange no ?
RE: Very slow WPA cracking on NVIDIA 8500 GT Windows - atom - 03-05-2014
Take a look at the benchmarks: https://hashcat.net/oclhashcat/ to get an idea about the performance relative
RE: Very slow WPA cracking on NVIDIA 8500 GT Windows - twee - 03-05-2014
atom, it is still not even close to the numbers shown on that page, it gives me 600 H/S , not 600K H/S
RE: Very slow WPA cracking on NVIDIA 8500 GT Windows - atom - 03-05-2014
there is no gpu in the world that can do 600k please read it again carefully
RE: Very slow WPA cracking on NVIDIA 8500 GT Windows - twee - 03-05-2014
Atom,
Yes I know, but the slowest one in that table for WPA cracking shows: 45k c/s
45k means 45,000 right ?
My setup shows: 600
Or am I confused ?
RE: Very slow WPA cracking on NVIDIA 8500 GT Windows - curlyboi - 03-05-2014
WPA is simply a very computing expensive algorithm. The slowest PC in the benchmark (PC4) still does 1838Mh/s with MD5 where you only do 37Mh/s. That means you are 50x slower. With the same logic, those 32kh/s / 50 = 640h/s (give or take).
It all checks out.
RE: Very slow WPA cracking on NVIDIA 8500 GT Windows - twee - 03-05-2014
curlyboi, I guess you are correct
The math wins in this case. Where would you say is the bottleneck of this scenario ? The GT graphics card ? Does the PC has any effect on the results ? Or this card is really relatively old ?
RE: Very slow WPA cracking on NVIDIA 8500 GT Windows - KT819GM - 03-05-2014
This entry level ~6 year old card is just slow.
