Are you using the bitmap even with just 1 hash loaded?  In the real
implementation, I guess you'll need to do direct comparisons when the
number of loaded hashes (for the current salt if applicable) is below a
threshold (like just 1 or 2).

OK, this is an improvement upon what you had before.

As an option, you could form the bitmap in local memory right away,
based on the list of loaded hashes for the current salt.  I guess you'd
have to redo it for every crypt_all() call, though.
