In other words, how many SHA-1s per second do our current c/s rates for RAR translate to? Of course, there's lots of other "overhead" besides SHA-1 involved, but I am curious nevertheless. I naively thought that we had SHA-1 on every iteration, but this doesn't appear to be the case, or the speed on GTX 570 would be unbelievably high (only 8 clock cycles per SHA-1 round, which would be too good given the lack of rotates and bit selects on NVIDIA).
