Good morning! I've searched and could not find this- could anyone please explain to me the files involved in oclhashcat sessions? Basically, I'm running a long-ass session using VCL, which is not t...

Post: Salted md5crypt speed question

Quick question- I've noticed that if I run a salted ($1$salt$hash) md5crypt hash in mask attack, I only get full speed if I run it by itself, with the single-hash optimizer. If I run it with ano...

All I can tell you is it's working fine for me as of today- setup was not hard at all, just follow the wiki.

What kind of performance could I expect with disthc running over Infiniband compared to standalone? Is it designed to work over a high speed/low latency link like VCL is, or is it much different? T...

Post: RE: Slow VCL speeds

Just for the record- I've managed to get ~20 000K/sec over gigabit using VCL, which is the speed I was expecting all along. The trick was ramping up the -n value way up- anything under 300 or 400 was ...

If I watch top, the oclhashcat process just consumes more and more memory, starting at ~15%, and steadily consumes until all is exhausted. The rate is about 2%/hr, if I remember correctly. Not sure...

Post: RE: Slow VCL performance

Thanks for the reply- I will compare performance with a lower -n value. Would there be any value in going to VCL 1.21? I noticed that I didn't mention this is a brute-force attack, by the way. I gue...

Would you be so kind as to post performance results? I'm particularly interested in descrypt and md5crypt. Thanks!

Thank you very much! That's a nice increase on the descrypt, a little disappointing on the md5crypt though!

Post: RE: Proper Airflow and Case Selection

I thought with all the airflow the Delta fans give that it would work with the 7990s; it wasn't even close, overheated within 30 seconds. 7990 on top with a reference 6970 on the bottom works fine, h...
