AWS setup
#1
I am looking for the best setup on AWS to run 15700 ethereum script crack . 

AWS has many nvidia GPU.   Did any one setup hashcat on it, 
- what OS / AMI and drivers did you use ? 
- What kind of ec2 ? 
- what version of hashcat. ?

I tried with ubuntu on g3.16xlarge with auto installation of drivers with `sudo ubuntu-drivers autoinstall`

I got the following

* Device #1: CUDA SDK Toolkit installation NOT detected.

 hashcat6.1.0 with -w3 is practically not working. Speed is 0 H/s. It's been around 30 minutes and it only processed 192 words.

Ethereum, -m 15700 is very anti gpu... you will get much faster results if you use cpu for this. Like MUCH !!

Alright, I switched to CPU. c5.metal 96 core but I am only at 120 H/s .. is that normal, or I should optimize the setup like driver, os, and hashcat configuration ?

 What is the best speed you have seen for 15700 ?

That’s quite good... I get 26h/s on a ryzen 16thread... so yea.


Like I said , 15700 is a very very slow hash.. so unless you know a lot about the password, it’s gonna be very slow
