You mean salts, not entire test vectors. It is as expected that clean
1.7.9 uses just the first two salts when benchmarking. Jumbo's use of
only one salt is a bug. My guess is that it's been introduced along
with support for -1000 and -1001 for BENCHMARK_LENGTH. Can one of you
look into this, please?
Thanks,
