Hashcat very slow between benchmarks
#1
Wink 
Hello, i'm not really sure what the problem could be here so thoughts are welcome. I'm running a benchmark on one of the new AWS EC2 P2x16 systems and it's been really slow to start and really slow between tests. To be clear, the test itself runs quite quickly, but then it just pauses for a long time until it starts the next test.

I just checked one and it satĀ for roughly 87 seconds from the end of one test to the start of the next. It was similarly slow at the very start as well, which i initially wrote off as just being a a startup thing but now i'm guessing it's the same issue.

Any ideas? I'd like to benchmark the entire set of suites for posterity but i'm paying by the hour here, and considering how many hash types there are and what AWS charges for one of these it's a not-insignificant amount of money. Smile

Ideas welcome.
