Hashcat slows down after staring attack.

[codeme]

I'm having the same problem, only I am cracking ethereum wallet with SCRYPT algorithm.

I'm doing this on AWS, it seems that the hash rate slows down slowly over the course of the day, until I'm down to 1 h/s (from 12 h/s using 8 CPUs).

Is it possible that AWS is reducing performance? Here is my command:

Code:

./hashcat64.bin -m 15700 -a 0 -w 3 -D1 --force --scrypt-tmto=1 /home/ubuntu/crackme.txt /home/ubuntu/words.txt --status --status-timer=30
