PBKDF2 (because it's probably used in a number of different places?)
Both would be nice to have, but they both share the same "problem". That is that they have a dynamic iteration count. Therefore comparison of benchmarks always lead to invalid results.
I would assume hashcat uses a fixed iteration count for benchmarks. Then it would still allow to compare performance of different hashcat versions and different hardware.
Right but what's the point then. VeraCrypt and TrueCrypt share the same algorithms, the only difference is the PIM. This means VeraCrypt performance scales linearely with TrueCrypt performance.
