Subject: RE: Contributing significant changes to the jumbo patch (mostly performance improvements)
Patch: john-1.7.3.1-all-5-rawMD5-SSE2-1.diff
This patch adds MMX and SSE2 to the existing rawMD5. All 3 methods
will do blocks of 64 passwords per each crypt-all call (or at least
'up' to 64).
A 1.5 to 2x improvement in speed, depending upon the core. The code
used was from md5-mmx.S (and stages-*-md5.S).
Had to do in blocks of 64, or serious performance hit was seen, due
to too much file IO (ftell() calls).
Jim.
