Was really excited to download the new version and check the performance!
Note: Same video card for all below.
However, installed Catalyst 15.7.1 for oclHashcat 2.0.1
For the previous release I was getting about 35MH/s (single hash)
For 2.01 I got an amazing 152MH/s.
Wow!
So far, so good.
For my second benchmark I ran with 13 descrypt hashes - but all the same salt.
(as we all know, descrypt has a very limited number of salts, so this performance is important).
Unfortunately, performance dropped to 30MH/s.
So, is the simply a math error in reporting of the performance?
Or, is this an artifact of the algorithm changes?
(my fear is that it's the latter...)
