OK, this is sane speed for a quad-core CPU. It's just about 15% slower
than what I'd expect for a Q6600, but maybe there was some other load.

If you have to ask, it means there's no decent GPU in there. ;-)

The words "brute force" can mean so many different things that to me
they're meaningless, which is why the official John the Ripper
documentation does not use them (-jumbo isn't as clean, though).
That said, the short answer is: it can take practically forever.
What you may do is try additional wordlists:

In particular, try rockyou.txt.bz2 available from the SkullSecurity wiki
(somehow it's down at the moment, but it should be back up soon).
You may also try more and bigger wordlist rulesets, such as
"--rules=jumbo" and additional rulesets downloadable here:

Why do you need to be cracking this specific password, though? Why not
just reset it?
