the "cost" factor bcrypt means 2^costs=rounds, so 2^5 is 32 and 2^10 is 1024, the rest like mentioned is managed by autotune, maybe your graphicscard is not capable of doing 1024 loops in a row or something similar so autotune splits it to 4*256.
cost/rounds or iterations where intruduced to slow down cracking, imagine this, (i use lower numbers just for showing purposes) you are able to compute 1000 hashes per second for a single round, introduce an iteration of 10, you will end up with just 100 hashes per second and so on
seems like really it is doing 4x256, beacuase of I am using $2$10 hash for test, which is 2^10, 1024 Iterations. I will try another types of bcrypt hashes, with less or more iterations, and message here. Thank you for you support, really appreciate that! Thanks
