I tried it and can confirm it. But it is not a bug or something. Its just that hashcat can not generate the password plains fast enough. On my 8 core bulldozer it makes ~ 280k/s. That is still faster than 180k/s my hd6990 does, but you have to take into the calculation that the results can be of every length. if you say the average password length is either 6, 7, 8 or 9 we have to divide the 280k/s by 4, makes it 70k/s. In simple words. oclHashcat-plus idles while waiting for full password plain buffer.
