Multiple means millions.
I am using "-m 100 -a 3" and specifiying an hcmask file which contains strings like ?d?s?s?s?d?s?s?s?d
Running it on one hash and one hash only results in expected speeds. Running it on millions of hashes, not so much.
I was running this with an AMD 295x2 (before it cooked the motherboard) and was getting a little over 3 billion hashes per second against sha1. I have gone with the GTX 1080 FE due to the lower power consumption and lower heat. I was hoping for comparable performance, but I will probably need another GPU in order to get where I was.
I wanted to rule out software settings as a result of transitioning from the 295x2 to the GTX 1080 FE. I now realize that hashcat, or its settings, are not the culprit. I just need more overclockable GPUs that don't cook themselves or their motherboards.
Thanks for responding.
