How does hashcat calculate Time.Estimated?
#1
Hi
I've modified the hash type 14000 to do output feedback where the output of one round of DES is fed into the input of the next round. The code works and cracks my test hashes, however I think running the DES round multiple times has messed with the brain part of hashcat somehow. As you can see below hashcat thinks my GTX3080 ti can hash DES at 430 GH/s which isn't the case at all. Also that keyspace I am testing should take about an hour or so to run but as you can see it thinks it will run in 18 minutes. 

Another thing I noticed is it doesn't actually find the password after the run completes however if I provide more of the password it does find the password. I'm thinking that passwords are being skipped. 

Any suggestions as to why it may be acting this way?

Nevermind, worked it out, error in the inner loop code.
