If the left mask results in a less number of combinations like:
?d
?l
?u
?d?l
the attack is generally slower (in hybrid attack mode)
Similarly, if the number of words in the left dictionary in a combined dictionary attack are less, the speed of the attack is slow.
Is there a way to speed this up? With a light left mask/wordlist, can we have a better speed?
In some cases I have observed, the speed slowly increasing with time when the left mask/wordlist is small and right mask/wordlist is large.
As per my understanding, oclhashcat-plus loads the right wordlist first followed by the left one. I am not sure of the limitations but it would definitely be a significant improvement if this could be optimized.
