myrice -

As discussed on IRC, you'll need to redo these with incremental mode and
with fewer passwords getting cracked.  However, thank you for posting
these "wrong" results as well.  It helps.  They're also good for
correctness testing before you approach actually benchmarking things.

1 second is too little time for the c/s rate to reflect anything.
(1 minute could be OK.)

This looks reasonable and consistent with --test, 54.6M c/s at "many salts".

This could also be reasonable, but the hashes/salt ratio was changing
(so we can't reliably deduce the hashes computed per second from the
printed effective c/s rate) and the total running time is too short.

We need 1+ minute and no successful guesses.

Same problems as above.

Running time is OK, but the hashes/salt ratio was changing, and
non-negligible time might have been spent on processing the successful
guesses.

Also, what's "1260M1M" - doesn't look like a number to me.  Is this what
john actually printed?  I doubt it.

Now this is actually relevant, similarly to your 10K_10K run.  So things
look OK for the one hash per salt case.

Thanks,

Alexander
