Slow Left Mask or Dict
#1
If the left mask results in a less number of combinations like:

?d
?l
?u
?d?l

the attack is generally slower (in hybrid attack mode)

Similarly, if the number of words in the left dictionary in a combined dictionary attack are less, the speed of the attack is slow.

Is there a way to speed this up? With a light left mask/wordlist, can we have a better speed?

In some cases I have observed, the speed slowly increasing with time when the left mask/wordlist is small and right mask/wordlist is large.

As per my understanding, oclhashcat-plus loads the right wordlist first followed by the left one. I am not sure of the limitations but it would definitely be a significant improvement if this could be optimized.
