As the chart shows, the
TACC1441 accelerates each of these algorithms by a factor of 6x - 30x
compared to the un-accelerated processors. And that's just one TACC1441...
Several TACC1441 units can be connected to a single host to boost
performance even further!
Need Faster Performance?
Use Multiple Accelerators!
Do you need even faster performance
than the 6x - 30x gain offered by a single TACC1441? If so, you can gang
multiple TACC1441 accelerators together on a single computer!
The next chart illustrates the
benefit of using multiple Tableau TACC1441 accelerators with a single host
computer, in this case, a Pentium Core2 Quadcore. for each additional
TACC1441 unit there is roughly a linear increase in performance for many
widely used encrypted file formats, such as WinZip and PGP. In certain
cases, the benefits extend even to file formats like WinRAR!
If you are familiar with
dictionary-based password attacks like WinZip, you are accustomed to seeing
rates of 1,000 - 3,000 passwords per second on Pentium IV computers, maybe
20k+ passwords per second on a mid-size AccessData DNA cluster. Today we
have single CPUs with four TACC1441 accelerators running in excess of
250,000 passwords per second!
