@hamish: What do you intend to do with the Block Ciphers? Are you attempting to crack them?
I think you mean to say, hashing algorithms based on Block Ciphers like descrypt (based on DES) and bcrypt (based on Blowfish)?
DES has been accelerated on the GPU, so you can crack it faster with oclhashcat-plus or with a multicore CPU (OMP would be good).
bcrypt is not so efficient on GPU, so you can try either GPU or a multi core CPU.
