From old wiki:

Quote:Hint: You can optimize your wordlists for oclhashcat-plus usage. You just need to sort them by their length. It is recommended that you generate seperate wordlists sorted by their length.

Does sorting wordlist by length gives any advantage in current version?
This is no longer necessary in modern hashcat. I've added a note to the end of that paragraph to make that explicit. Thanks for the indirect docs-bug report, always appreciated. Big Grin
