Yes I know that 2+ identical bytes can happen easily in a random number generator, but the chances of getting like 8 identical bytes next to each other are very low in a random number generator, (or even 8 bytes, and then another 8 bytes, just like in my example before). Even if that happens it can be ignored compared to the overall keys generated.
And I know that the keys are not all identical, not even 8 identical + another 8 different identical. The max adjacent identical are about 2 to 3.
And you are correct, I tried the mask processor approach and the speed dropped by a lot, from roughly 400 MH/s down to 15 MH/s (not enough work for the gpu when adding -q 2 limitation). I am using an AMD r9-290 gpu by the way.
