Intel openCL

I understand; and I have been using JTR but it only utilizes 25% of my CPU (i5 - 2 cores 4 threads), basically the typical behavior of a non-multi threaded application. There's a way to make it run on all four threads if you run JTR from linux (it is not possible in Windows) and I tried it but there were some errors and in general, the app wasn't stable.

Just wondering then, isn't OpenCL like a general interface for computation on devices that support it? I don't know much about this of course, so forgive my next question's noobishness, but how "hard" would it be to make it so that ocl-hashcat-lite could use the intel's take on OpenCL? Are the calls / structure that different? I'm just interested in the principle and differences, not actually asking you to create the opencl version.

Thanks for the reply Smile
