Really curious how long it takes for folks to crack. My #rust code, even if I had figured out how to use my 8 cores, would have taken an estimated 120+ years github.com/sts10/crackme-rust

@schlink just in case, you're benchmarking your Rust code in --release mode, right?

The very best easy to parallelize CPU-heavy Rust code is by using the rayon crate: docs.rs/rayon/

@bugaevc ok i found a workaround and now I'm using all 8 cores! thanks so much!
