Subject: how charset are made ?

Hi

 I have generated my own alnum.chr charset (from a cracked password 
dico), with 200 000 words.

 I did a test :

 1 - original JTR's charset (alnum)
 2 - my charset (alnum)

 Original charset are at least 3 times faster to find plaintext ! the 
word was easy "test620"

 How do you explain that ? :-/

 Is John build a charset based on words statitics ?

 thanks,

 W.A.
