Difference between project and hashcat

[joroMaser]

I want to crack JWT with HS256
What is the different between your project and hashcat with mode 16500 ?
Thank you

Honestly i have no idea. I originally built this project as a learning exercise and not to build the fastest solution out there.

I would expect hashcat to be faster than this because it's written in a low level language and probably built with performance in mind.

If anyone wants to do some benchmarks I'd be more than happy to quote/include the results somewhere here (maybe in the README)

Hey, yeah I believe I was wrong, because Hashcat uses MH, and technically I can do 4000 MH, so I assume that's way more then.

But your approach is pretty neat, to keep it running on a 2. Device.
