HashCat takes a very long time to report progress
#1
I've been working with s3inlc, of hashtopolis for a few days now trying to iron out some issues with HashCat and Hashtopolis.

It has come down to an issue with HashCat taking a very long time to report any progress. About 10 - 15 minutes in fact.

I'm not entirely sure why, as my hash rate for 7z is about 3,000 H/s.

How does the the checkpoint system work in HashCat, what sort of work load is required to hit a checkpoint and get status updates?

Example 10 minute job, no progress, hashing at 3,000+ H/s:

Code:
C:\Users\Jeff\Desktop\x\hashcat\hashtopolis\Python\crackers\1>HashCat64.exe --quiet --runtime=600 --restore-disable --potfile-disable --session=hashtopolis -a 0 -m 11600 ..\..\hashlists\13 ..\..\files\rockyou.txt -p : --hash-type=11600 -o ..\..\hashlists\13.out
