Best Hardware for bcrypt

The benchmark uses workfactor 5. Going from workfactor 5 (32) to workfactor 10 (1024) is a 32 times increase (32*32=1024). Meaning that cracking will be about 32 times slower. Workfactor 12 (4096) is again four times slower.

So you will need to divide all your benchmarks to get real cracking speeds. See post https://hashcat.net/forum/thread-12524.html about someone getting only 1kH on the RTX 5090.

After this you will need to think how large your search space is going to be. If you want to crack passwords of a length of 6 (uppercase, lowercase, numbers and no special characters) a RTX 5090 for the workfactor 10 hashes is going to take 1800 years.
