OK, this is starting to become reasonable. Have you also tried values
smaller than 2048*8?

I understand what you mean by "~45G = ~45M", but why "~90G = ~ 45M"?
I think you're confused. At 1000 same-salt hashes, "90G" reported
effective speed (combinations per second) means 90M hashes computed per
second. max_keys_per_crypt is not part of that equation.
(I definitely need to improve speed reporting to avoid such confusion.)

As discussed, you absolutely must implement bitmaps and hash tables on
GPU. Your direct comparisons are only good for very small numbers of
loaded hashes and for early experiments with larger numbers, like what
you're doing now. As you've reached this milestone, you should now
proceed further - to bitmaps and hash tables.
Thanks,
