Ok! Good to keep that in mind.
The version I'm using is 'v6.2.3', which in turn is obsolete. I'll update the version and try the hash breaking approach again.

If so, as hashcat gets to the higher and higher round count hashes, the speed degrades further and further, and the longer the attack goes on, the lower the average overall speed becomes, causing it to appear to degrade over the course of the attack.

In case the first approach doesn't work, I'll look into the hash type and see if there is anything that encompasses degradation through time for Django (PBKDF2-SHA256).

One case or the other, I will be back to share the results.
Thank you
