What hash type(s) are you testing on?  Of those you provided benchmarks
for here: http://hashsuite.openwall.net/performance only LM and MSCash
hashes include OpenMP parallelization in JtR currently, but NTLM don't.

Can you try the non-jumbo 1.7.9 as well (also john-omp.exe)?

Oh, and the speed you're reporting for LM hashes (25M c/s) is
surprisingly low for JtR 1.7.9 on a modern CPU.  As you can see, we have
higher speeds for 1.7.9 here: http://openwall.info/wiki/john/benchmarks
