Thanks, it's way faster:

$ ./john -test -format=raw-sha1-opencl --mask
Device 1: GeForce GTX 1080
Benchmarking: Raw-SHA1-opencl [SHA1 OpenCL]... Build log: 
ptxas info    : 0 bytes gmem
ptxas info    : Compiling entry function 'sha1' for 'sm_61'
ptxas info    : Function properties for sha1
ptxas         .     64 bytes stack frame, 0 bytes spill stores, 0 bytes spill loads
ptxas info    : Used 30 registers, 16388 bytes smem, 400 bytes cmem[0], 36 bytes cmem[2]
DONE, GPU util:100%

Does it mean I have to use mask mode to get this kind of performance, and other modes would run in the 87M c/s range?

thanks
