Thanks, I took a look.
For MSCash (which is salted), I think it will make more sense to report
raw hashing speed rather than passwords tested per second. Then you'll
be able to reasonably show how it scales up to 1M hashes and beyond.
Also, I think testing on longer passwords (8 characters or so, 7 for LM)
will be of more practical relevance. I understand that your choice of
length 5 might be related to JtR's shortcoming where you can't easily
get incremental mode to terminate early by other means, except with an
external mode which would introduce overhead. I got to introduce a fast
built-in mask mode or the like.
