Hashcat slows down after staring attack.
#1
Bug 
I'm having the same problem, only I am cracking ethereum wallet with SCRYPT algorithm.

I'm doing this on AWS, it seems that the hash rate slows down slowly over the course of the day, until I'm down to 1 h/s (from 12 h/s using 8 CPUs).

Is it possible that AWS is reducing performance? Here is my command:

Code:
./hashcat64.bin -m 15700 -a 0 -w 3 -D1 --force --scrypt-tmto=1 /home/ubuntu/crackme.txt /home/ubuntu/words.txt --status --status-timer=30

OpenCL info:


Code:
Platform ID #1   Vendor  : Intel(R) Corporation   Name    : Intel(R) OpenCL   Version : OpenCL 1.2    Device ID #1     Type           : CPU     Vendor ID      : 8     Vendor         : Intel(R) Corporation     Name           : Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU E5-2676 v3 @ 2.40GHz     Version        : OpenCL 1.2 (Build 475)     Processor(s)   : 8     Clock          : 2400     Memory         : 8043/32174 MB allocatable     OpenCL Version : OpenCL C 1.2      Driver Version : 1.2.0.475

Thank you so much!!
