Subject: Checks per second and LM

List, for example I've got:

guesses: 3581  time: 0:16:15:31 (3)  c/s: 5385M  trying: -5O_5O% - -5O_5A!

And then, being helped by the WIKI page for LM hash, it states that the key
space for each half is 2^43=8796093022208. So... If I've got
5385M=5385000000 checks per sec, 8796093022208/5385000000 = 28 min total
time for entire key space... What i'm missing here? I think this is not
correct...

Thanks!!
