HashCat without GPU. Is it possible to increase speed? - MA40 - 06-28-2020

Hi.

I have running HashCat on a VPS (Linux) without GPU.

When I look at what graphics card I am using, I get this:
 
Code:
$ inxi -Gx
Graphics:
  Device-1: VMware SVGA II Adapter driver: N/A bus ID: 00:02.0
  Display: x11 server: X.Org 1.20.8 driver: vmware
  unloaded: fbdev,modesetting,vesa resolution: 1368x768~60Hz
  OpenGL: renderer: llvmpipe (LLVM 9.0.1 256 bits) v: 3.3 Mesa 20.0.4
  direct render: Yes
$

I wonder if there is any way to increase HashCat speed a bit with this.

A greeting.

No, SVGA is a very low-level emulated GPU, and does not have OpenCL or CUDA support.

Ok, thanks.

What solutions can there be without leaving the VPS?

I know that the ideal may be to hire a dedicated server with the appropriate hardware and move everything there, but I want to know if there are other solutions. For example, it occurs to me to perhaps rent GPUs remotely. Would it be possible? Is there such a thing?

A greeting.
