These numbers are for 32 iterations ("$2a$05"):

			OpenBSD 3.0 bcrypt(*)	crypt_blowfish 0.4.4
 | 
						|
Pentium III, 840 MHz	99 c/s			121 c/s (+22%)
 | 
						|
Alpha 21164PC, 533 MHz	55.5 c/s		76.9 c/s (+38%)
 | 
						|
UltraSparc IIi, 400 MHz	49.9 c/s		52.5 c/s (+5%)

Pentium, 120 MHz	8.8 c/s			20.1 c/s (+128%)

(*) built with -fomit-frame-pointer -funroll-loops, which I don't
 | 
						|
think happens for libcrypt.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Starting with version 1.1 released in June 2011, default builds of
 | 
						|
crypt_blowfish invoke a quick self-test on every hash computation.
 | 
						|
This has roughly a 4.8% performance impact at "$2a$05", but only a 0.6%
 | 
						|
impact at a more typical setting of "$2a$08".
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
The large speedup for the original Pentium is due to the assembly
 | 
						|
code and the weird optimizations this processor requires.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
The numbers for password cracking are 2 to 10% higher than those for
 | 
						|
crypt_blowfish as certain things may be done out of the loop and the
 | 
						|
code doesn't need to be reentrant.
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
Recent versions of John the Ripper (1.6.25-dev and newer) achieve an
 | 
						|
additional 15% speedup on the Pentium Pro family of processors (which
 | 
						|
includes Pentium III) with a separate version of the assembly code and
 | 
						|
run-time CPU detection.
