Some more thoughts regarding the generic-crypt(3) patch. I always
wondered what was actually measured when benchmarking this "format".
Just DES or a mixture of formats? The code revealed it was DES only.
In case anyone share my curiousity, I enclose a little patch making it
easy to choose which format is tested/benchmarked, as a compile time
option. It's supposed to be applied after the crypt-1 patch.
Here's some example figures, including figures from the optimized
versions of DES and MD5 for comparison:
---8<---------8<---------8<---------8<------
Benchmarking: Traditional DES [128/128 BS SSE2-16]... DONE
Many salts: 4504K c/s real, 4563K c/s virtual

Benchmarking: generic crypt(3) OS call (using DES) [?/64]... DONE
Many salts: 421162 c/s real, 425416 c/s virtual
Only one salt: 417396 c/s real, 417396 c/s virtual
