The World’s Fastest DES Cracker
The Deep Crack ASICs had 25 processing units per chip, so 44,544 "cores" total for the EFF DES cracker. The crack.sh FPGA setup has 1920 "cores" (48 boards, 40 "cores" per board).
So it's 10x faster with 23x fewer cores.
Consider applying for YC's Spring batch! Applications are open till Feb 11.
