Very high "runtime" value with -w 4 - patpro - 06-07-2017 Hi, I'm currently running hashcat 3.40 on Ubuntu 16.04 LTS with a single GTX 1080. My hash file is about 20M SHA1 hashes, and I'm using mask mode: Code: Session..........: hashcat I'm using this hardware for several weeks now, and I can't recall reading such a high value of "runtime" : about 2 seconds. Yesterday, I've ugraded the whole system, Nvidia's driver included (yielding to a +20% perf gain on SSHA-1 bench for example). I've also installed Ubuntu-desktop. I wonder if that very huge 2 sec. runtime value is due to one of these software changes. And by the way, despite the -w 4 option, the desktop looks responsive. here is the nvidia-smi reading: Code: Wed Jun 7 06:51:02 2017 RE: Very high "runtime" value with -w 4 - royce - 11-19-2017 Is the runtime value correlating with some kind of other performance problem? Also, any reason why you're not using a newer version of hashcat?

My post is pretty old, I've upgraded HC since. And no, the ~2sec runtime value does not correlate with perf problems, but using -w 4 is supposed to yield to an almost unresponsive GUI (for example). I'm not seeing any performance drop on this area, and that whats bugged me :) No big deal anyway, everything looks ok. |
