need help with sha512
#24
Overall, it is more than 5000 sha512 operations because of the initialization part which is more complex as compared to md5crypt. There can be 30-40 additional sha512 hash operations depending on salt and password (the initialization part is particularily unfriendly to GPUs).

A good description of the algorithm can be found here:
