Thank you for explaining this. I am relieved to know it was this simple.

Great!

This is puzzling. As far as I'm aware, they're supposed to be faster on
NVidia as well. How did this change affect code size? Did the code
size reduce with the fewer-ops F and G functions?
Perhaps you have some other bottleneck that you're hitting.

Sounds good.

This was probably a 32-bit build. A 64-bit build would be 50% faster
or so. A build with the -jumbo patch and very recent gcc or with icc
would be faster yet (up to around 30000 c/s per core).

That's OK, but it's 3 times slower than the benchmark you have posted on
the wiki, right? So is there a 3x performance hit for actual cracking
as compared to --test?
100k c/s is probably achievable on your i3-2100 CPU if you do a more
optimal build (see above) and use all CPU cores at once. I am not
asking you to do that; I merely point out that the speedup with a GPU is
still questionable, unfortunately.
Thanks,
