Speed of Hascat vs Pyrit

[john99]

Hello

under http://hashcat.net/oclhashcat-plus/ the following is written:

- Worlds fastest md5crypt, phpass, mscash2 and WPA / WPA2 cracker


I always believed that Pyrit is the fastest WPA cracker.. hmm or do I miss something?


Thanks a lot for any feedback!

John

[undeath]

you missed oclhashcat-plus

@john99 : do a benchmark

[forumhero]

pyrit cannot scale well. for example on 4xhd5970

Do not forget the magical "--gpu-loops 4096 -n 32" parameter set for WPA

[Mem5]

@atom: This magical option does not speed up the crack for me.

[atom]

Its depending on GPU. Its mostly efficient on AMD, at most at hd7970. Not much of a difference on NV.

[john99]

Thank's a lot for the feedback! Does that mean, hashcat-plus is even faster than Pyrit with its precomputed tables???


Thank you!

John

[epixoip]

correct, it means that plus is over 2x faster than pyrit with its precomputed tables.

[john99]

pyrit cannot scale well. for example on 4xhd5970

Does pyrit not scale well, because for every GPU a CPU is required (that is at least my understanding)?
