Hybrid attack keyspace inconsistency
#2
The option name "keyspace" is misleading and isn't actually the keyspace. It's just some internal hashcat number.

Or to quote the FAQ entry you linked:
Quote:hashcat's --keyspace is specifically designed to optimize distribution of work, and is not a literal representation of the total possible keyspace for a given attack.

The part about how the hashcat "keyspace" is calculated is probably wrong.
