Excellent, I was just going to report I saw performance loss from bumping either so I was worried we'd have to use shorter length.
BTW I did some really quick'n'dirty tests comparing unstable and bleeding at exact same conditions (0x7e and 15, trained from rockyou and attacking a real dataset of 70,000 raw-md5 hashes for 60 seconds). Unstable was 1.5% faster in terms of c/s but bleeding cracked 2.5% more passwords despite that, from picking better candidates earlier. And that was before these latest changes :-)
