It should do 2M+ trips/s per core.

Actually, some Japanese folks did.  Erik has already posted the most
appropriate link:

http://tmkk.hp.infoseek.co.jp/tripper/index_e.html

VecTripper_20090729.tar.bz2 has the source code, and it reuses and even
enhances code from JtR.  In fact, I suspect that Dango-Chu's DES S-boxes
for AltiVec, currently included in JtR 1.7.6 as sboxes-s.c, were
originally created primarily with tripcodes in mind.

That web page also has links to other implementations.

Finally, this lengthy multi-year thread:

http://wakaba.c3.cx/soc/kareha.pl/1100499906

has many links to various implementations, intermixed with garbage and
spam comments...

Good luck!
