How Calculate GPU Cracking Time

The best way to do this is to perform an actual run.

Raw wordlist mode (with no rules) is very, very fast. hashcat's guessing speed is so fast that it can often spend more time caching a large dictionary than the actual guessing:


Code:
$ echo en 'hashcathashcat' | md5sum | awk '{print $1}'
38f63c3a621ad108457843529feec46a

$ ./hashcat -m 0 -a 0 -w 4 38f63c3a621ad108457843529feec46a really-big-wordlist.txt

Side note: the stats above are not part of hashcat's output, but they might be useful for others, so I've requested them as a feature.
